Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Gigi is sweet and gentle with a quiet approach to life. I have not one time seen her have a sense of urgency to her, for a treat, on-leash, or to jump-up from a nap. She is slow and steady and moves in a way that would be best described as thoughtful.
Take a look at gentleness in action then come back to read more!

Estimated to be 7 years young, she is a 55 lb Black Mouth Cur/Shepherd mix. We anticipate she has about 5 lbs to gain still so topping off around 60 lbs. Of course, with rescue, breed and birthday are details we cannot know or guarantee.
She’s currently more of a couch companion than a hiking buddy, but as she settles in, her playful side is starting to show. I got such a kick out of watching her explore a bunch of dog toys, you could see she was excited about them but was also shy about it, taking a toy and turning away to chew on it or boop it for the squeak. With another dog in the room interested in the toys, she easily made room for her to feel comfortable and had no problem sharing. Thanks to her low energy, quiet nature, and polite leash manners, an apartment could suit her well but she’d also love a quiet home with a yard where she could occasionally chase a passing butterfly- something that did recently happen on a walk. Short version- Gigi is great on leash but a big butterfly going by was so intriguing she got a little extra pep in her step and surprised our Director of Behavior while on an outing together. The telling of the story is comically cute!
Gigi is a great car-rider with anyone who has taken her out sharing just how quiet and respectful she is. During a recent car-ride she sat shotgun while her driver enjoyed lunch on-the-go and Gigi did not once push toward helping herself to any. She can be a little shy at first, sometimes retreating if approached too quickly- she is happiest when people let her make the first move, which always ends in sweet tail wags and soft eye contact once she’s decided you’re safe.
When she was introduced to new dogs she was polite, walking calmly by other dogs and greeting nicely. Once off leash she was comfortable in their presence but is more companion than playmate, preferring to carve out her own space or check in with a person, when the dogs got a little rowdy. Gigi would do best in a home with a low-energy, respectful male dog or as the one-and-only. She’s a fan of cats but not in the way that makes her a good fit to live with them. When she met out house cat she was interested in meeting him and then as he got more playful she went to match that energy with a playful lunge not welcome by cats. It is easy to see she would attempt to play with a cat and/or overwhelm them with her eager interest, so a feline-free home is a must.
Gigi’s looking for someone who will appreciate her slow and steady approach to life and be in full support, by her side for it, one quiet moment at a time.

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:
Extensive behavioral testing and information from trainers on our staff to ensure the perfect fit for your family
