Meet Gizmo: The Twist-Walking Wonder Pup
Born April 15, 2025- around 50LBS. Gizmo is an eight-month-old Weimaraner/Terrier mix with a heart of gold—and a story that’ll stay with you.
He was born outside in the dirt and never saw the inside of a house or a soft bed until he was 5 months old and surrendered to a rescue in the North Georgia Mountains. He was the last of his litter to find a home, you see Gizmo’s hind legs were underdeveloped, and walking wasn’t always easy. Sometimes he looked like he was doing the twist—adorable!!
He was taken in by fosters who nursed him back to be healthy and strong enough to start physical Therapy. He did amazing with his PT and graduated to at home exercises and regular leash walks to encourage him to use a controlled gait and not hop. He was a champ and determined to make his fosters proud! So with the help of wonderful volunteers, within 24 hrs, Gizmo arrived in Florida!!! It was amazing how everything fell perfectly into place. Gizmo loves it here in Florida and would really like to find his forever home . He loves all dogs and children. He ignored the one cat he was around after one swat from the kitty. He is housebroken and crate trained. He gives the most incredible hugs and snuggles. He is dewormed, up to date on all shots, on heartworm and flea protection.
Let’s help Gizmo find the forever home he’s been dreaming of, the one where every twist leads to joy,
If you are interested in meeting Gizmo or finding out more please make an application. His adoption fee is $100.00

More about this rescue
Common and understandable questions we encounter are “Where do the donations go?” and “Why are the puppies more expensive?”
Our philosophy at Find a Home, Give a Home is “all for one, and one for all”. This is why we list puppies at a higher adoption fee than our shelter babies. Puppies usually have less initial veterinary costs and are typically adopted at a quicker pace than adult dogs. The fees we receive for our puppies OFFSET the cost for all the precious lives we save that haven’t been as fortunate.
While cute little puppies (breeder surrender/confiscation) are often the most desirable and sought after, our true purpose is the humanitarian effort of finding homes for shelter dogs. Rescue dogs from shelters have not received even the basic veterinary care ever or regularly and are often abandoned and found in terrible physical condition, and sometimes are injured and need emergency and specialty veterinary treatment and care. We do everything we can to help these dogs to regain their health both physically and mentally. As these precious babies heal in foster homes, unfortunately, the veterinary costs do add up. Once they are healed, they sometimes have “special needs” which require temporary or permanent medications. All of this can delay finding the right forever home for them.
