My story

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

Gordita is a wild young lady that just wants to see the world. She is a bit scared of specific things such as loud noises and sometimes men with deep voices. She will need a confident owner who is ready to show her that the world isn't too scary when you're with the one you love. We have been working on Gordita's leash skills, and she is starting to learn that the leash means "walk", not "dead sprint". Gordita is such a sweet girl, it is hard not to fall in love with her goofy cinderblock head. Because Gordita is so strong, she has been deemed a bit of a bulldozer. Gordita would do best in an adult only family for right now, and would most likely do better in a home where she is the only dog. If you would like to learn more about Gordita, please call (509) 332-3422 to schedule an appointment, or even just to chat about the young lady herself.

Gordita is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $175.
