Hi I am Gymena!
I am approximately 4~5 yrs old, I am spayed, dewormed, and up to date with shots, and healthy!!!!
I am very social, sweet and on the calm side. Also, my foster says I am very smart!
Three of my front teeth are missing, they had to perform a surgery to remove them.... this is why: I was a stray and starving, they think I tried to chew on rocks, that's how hungry I was; so I damaged my teeth.
My name is Gymena because the owner of a Gym rescued me together with Dog Rescue Without Borders. The people at the gym and DRWB had a fundraiser to pay for my surgery.
Although I have experienced hunger and know how it feels to be alone on the streets, my character has not been destroyed. I am a happy girl, love my humans, and enjoy being friendly to everyone.
I am looking for my forever loving family..... someone to share my life with! I promise to love you for the rest of my life.
DRWB says that I one of the most loving dogs they have ever met...... well, I just know that I absolutely love everyone :)

Our Mission
Dog Rescue Without Borders is a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization which consists of a group of dedicated volunteers. We rescue homeless, abused, neglected & abandoned dogs from the streets and high-kill shelters; rehabilitate dogs by providing quality foster care and medical attention; and finding permanent and loving homes. We are committed to providing spay / neuter education; raising the public’s awareness of overpopulation, and responsible ownership.

Our pets are all cared for in foster homes. While in foster care, their foster family is making sure they receive lots of tender loving care and have any veterinary needs taken care of. This also gives the foster family an opportunity to learn about the dog's personality, so we can better assist you in selecting a dog that will be the best fit for you and your family.
Step 1
Fill out an application at our website
Step 2
Submit your adoption application to us. It may take a few days before your application is processed and you receive a response back.
Step 3
If your application is approved, we will call you to schedule a "Meet & Greet".
If we have an upcoming adoption event.
We will set a time for you to come meet the dog that day, usually on Saturdays. Please make sure you take any family members and other dogs to see how the initial introduction goes.
If we DON’T have an upcoming adoption event.
And you have other dogs:
We will schedule to meet you, any family members, and other dogs near your home first; this makes the entry into the new home easier for the dog and for your family.
And you don’t have any other dogs:
We will schedule to meet you and any family members at your home.
Step 4
Meet your prospective new pet. Spend time with them and see how it goes.
Step 5
If your "Meet & Greet" goes well and you wish to adopt; you will complete an adoption contract at the appointment. We ask for a suggested adoption donation to help us cover spay/neutering, shots, medical treatment, food, supplies and temporary care. These suggested donation amounts only partially cover the cost of expenses involved. Your donation is tax deductible. It’s that easy!
Step 6
Take your new best friend home! Congratulations – you have saved a special life.
What if the adoption doesn't work out?
You can return any of our dogs as we don't want to see them turned into a shelter. The application process helps prevent such an issue, so it's very important that you are honest when answering the questions.
Not all dogs are compatible in all situations, so it is imperative that you are forthright in the application process to find the right match. However, be sure you are ready to make a full commitment to adopting a dog, whether a puppy or an adult.
It can take up to a few weeks for a dog to really adjust to his/her new environment. A lot really depends on the dog's past so the prospect of adopting should be well-thought-out & the commitment should be taken seriously.
