My personality

My story

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

**All dogs are by appointment only, please inquire through Petfinder, Adopt-a-pet, Rescueme.org or e-mail us directly at shelter@hbpets.org for the dogs questionnaire***

Hello, I'm Gemma! I am almost 3yrs old, spayed female, Pitbull Mix. I have been searching for my unicorn owner for almost 18 months, that is over 500 days, during that time, this amazing shelter team, helped me get healthy, helped me become confident, helped me understand that even though my previous owners starved me, beat me and abandoned me, not all humans are like that. With the help of this team and wonderful volunteers I have become the best dog. I would prefer a home with a big backyard, maybe on some acreage, I prefer woman over men and children are not for me. I know there is someone out there who would be willing to visit me a few times and see just how wonderful I am.
