Meet Gabby!
This little cutie pie was seen wandering around on her own in a rural area for some time. She was finally trapped with a humane trap by our rescue partners in Yakima. Gabby is a timid but very sweet girl. She needs a little time to come out of her shell but she is darling and affectionate with those she trusts. Not a mean bone in her body! Gabby likes other dogs and will do best in a home with another dog - this type of social facilitation is important for shy dogs to help them build confidence.
Gabby seems a little too shy to be comfortable with fast moving young children but older kids, over 10, will be fine. This shy soul just needs a little time and patience.
From her foster mom:
Gabby is a sweet little dog who's nervous, but so wants to be brave. She'll approach then retreat until she finally trusts you to let you pet her, which she loves and makes her squirm around like crazy! She loves meeting people (no touching) and gets along well with other dogs, especially if theyll play with her. As well as her sweet face she has a lovely silly puppy play character and her antics will make you laugh. She likes to move things around the house that are almost as big as her, like shoes and cushions, but she's very good about not chewing them up. She's pretty well behaved generally, loves food and treats and once she's settled into a permanent home and feels really secure, she will just get better and better.
Gabby will be spayed, vaccinated and chipped. Her adoption fee is $450
