My story

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

Hi! My name is Gabe. I am a 4 year old, 21 lb love bug who enjoys running around the yard or snuggling with my people. I'm guessed to be a Corgi/Jack Russell mix but whatever I am, I am 100% adorable.

I came into rescue after losing my way and finding myself in an overcrowded shelter. No one came to claim me and the nice shelter people did not understand why!

I love anything that involves getting to be with my people or my animal friends. I enjoy cuddling, going on walks, playing with toys, going to training, chewing on bones and just hanging out. I just want to be your buddy! I will follow you around, lay next to you, curl up with you and rollover onto my back when I'm really comfy or welcoming belly rubs. I will snore a little bit, right along with you, when I'm sleeping.

I can be a nervous nelly in new situations and when I meet new people but I am working hard with my trainer to build my personal confidence. I prefer slow, calm introductions but once I know you, I will love you unconditionally. I have met several other dogs while with my foster family and have two foster dog siblings and two foster cat siblings! I don't even mind the cats I live with. I will play with them or just go on coexisting, depending on their mood. Big dogs intimidate me sometimes but with proper introductions, I do just fine.

I would love a family of my own and would thrive with having a companion, whether human or dog. Someone I can be with, play with, sleep with and go places with. A calmer environment and a little patience is all I need while I get used to my new home. Even kids would be okay with me, as long as they are not overly energetic and allow me to make the first move to figure them out. I am going to make the most loyal and devoted companion for the right family.

Gabe is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, microchipped and neutered. He would do best in a home with a fenced in yard so he can run and play safely.

Adopters must be within close proximity of Cedar Rapids/Marion, IA and willing to continue his prepaid training sessions until completed.

Indoor homes only.
