My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Gizmo he was surrendered by his family to another rescue because they were unable to care for him. He is a nice little guy but does take time to warm up. We were told he was a Norfolk Terrier mix and he does have the temperament to go with it. He would do best in a home with older teens or adults only as he likes his own space. Terriers are known for being independent dogs and he would thrive best in a home with terrier experience. Terriers are known for hunting small animals so Gizmo will need a home without cats. He seems to tolerate other dogs but can be a little vocal, a meet and greet will be needed before he goes home. Gizmo is such a cutie and even if he has a few restrictions we know his family is out there waiting for him, come meet him today!

Update: Gizmo was recently returned by his previous adopter because he barked when people would come visit and needed to be on special Urinary Care Food. We will send a bag of his food home with his new adopters and do recommend vet follow up care.

Gizmo's adoption fee is $150. This includes: Bordetella Vaccine, DHPP Vaccine, Microchip, Flea Treatment, Dewormer & Spay/Neuter Surgery. As well as age appropriate Heartworm Testing & Rabies Vaccine!
