Meet Gigi! Gigi is approximately 10 years old and is a terrier mix.
Gigi was unfortunately removed from very unhealthy living conditions. She was forced to reside in her own feces & urine, as well as had fleas and other infestations in the home. She was so scared when we first got her, but was still ok with being petted and held. She had clearly been traumatized but it didn't take long for her to warm up. Her housemate Lulu was her comfort while at the shelter, and she just needed time to know she was safe.
Gigi does a great job keeping her kennel clean here at the shelter, so we think if her family utilizes a crate, it will help her learn the routine as well as giving her a safe & quiet space she can go to if she wants to rest on her own. She will enjoy a walk every day but is also quite laid back and very cuddly. She bonds very tightly to her human and will absolutely be your shadow. She's also perfectly content basking in the sun or in her dog bed for the majority of her day, so would be great for someone who works from home and likes having company.
Gigi is friendly with other pets, and although smaller children may frighten her if they create loud noises or fast movements, we don't think she'll react aggressively. If the children in her home are respectful, she'll be happy to cuddle up to them!
Gigi is an incredibly sweet, loving girl who has been through a lot in her life and deserves a loving, patient, clean home with people who understand her basic needs. Gigi is now spayed and current on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $240
We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been generally approved. Please fill out the below PDF and email back to monroecountydogshelter@gmail.com
