My story

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

FOSTER: Medical foster needed

DESCRIPTION: Gabe went to to Urgent Care when he began to experience some respiratory difficulty and fainting spells. It was determined that Gabe's heartworm infection and large heart has advanced these symptoms. He has begun oral medications to help improve his health while he also takes medication for the heartworms. Gabe would benefit from a foster home where he can rest outside of the stress of the shelter. The vet stated that he needs to be as calm as possible, no walks or strenuous activity.

WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP: Simply email FosterAPet@LeagueCityTX.gov letting us know which pet you're interested in fostering & staff will respond letting you know the status! You can also call our Community Outreach Coordinator directly at 281-554-1374!

BIO: Meet Gabe, a sweet, playful, and smart dog with a magical tale. Once, Gabe was a companion to a wizard who adored him. One day, the wizard had to leave on a dangerous quest, and in order to protect Gabe, he sent him to our shelter through a magical portal. Here, Gabe has been charming everyone with his skills; he knows how to sit, lie down, and come when called. His love for stuffed animals is endearing. Adopting Gabe means not just getting a pet, but a loyal friend with a heart full of love and a dash of magic.
