My name is Susie!

This beautiful 2-year-old girl named Susie  was saved just in time from euthanasia at Downey ACC by  @savinggizmosfriends  in partnership with  @grandmasbarnrescueandsanctuary  . She is an is an independent, adventurous girl who loves the great outdoors. ☀️

She’s only 53 lbs. She’s sweet., dog-friendly and she’s doing her best to trust again.

Susie was found as a stray and was so shut down in the shelter. Quiet, scared, pacing softly in her kennel. The world felt like too much… until the right people saw her, and said: “Not today.”

She still needs a patient long-term foster or even better - a forever home. One thing’s for sure — Suzie is not a “crate life” kind of dog. She thrives with freedom, fresh air, and humans who understand her confident, spirited nature. She’s scared at first and howling needs time to warm up but once you gain her trust, she’s pure love. She needs someone patient, gentle, and kind. If that’s you, please reach out.


Currently being in a temp foster home, but still seeking a longterm or permanent place to land.
