Story
Meet Gemma 💎Gemma is a beautiful 6-year-old 14 lb. Poodle with the sweetest, most gentle soul. While we don't know her full story, we believe she may have spent much of her life being used for breeding. When she came into our care, our veterinarian noted that she had likely recently had puppies and that they had already been weaned.When Gemma was found, her condition was heartbreaking. Her coat was severely neglected, and she simply laid there as if she had lost hope. But hidden beneath all of that neglect was something truly beautiful. Once she was shaved and cleaned up, we uncovered a precious gem, which is exactly how she got her name. She bears a striking resemblance to our former rescue, Monet, and we can't help but wonder if they may have come from the same place.Despite whatever life has handed her, she has remained nothing but loving. This precious girl absolutely adores people. She craves affection and soaks up every bit of love and attention she receives as though she has been waiting her entire life for it. She wants nothing more than to be close to her people and is learning, perhaps for the very first time, what it truly means to be a cherished family member instead of simply existing.She is a kind and sensitive little soul who can become worried when left behind, likely because she never wants to lose the wonderful people who have shown her love and kindness. She gets along wonderfully with cats and dogs of all sizes. She truly is a special little girl who deserves a lifetime of soft beds, gentle hands, and unconditional love.She has started her veterinary care and is scheduled to be spayed soon. She is available through our foster-to-adopt program while she completes her vetting.She will need patience as she continues to learn potty and leash training.Also a Poodle, Gemma will require regular grooming to keep her healthy, comfortable, and looking her best.Gemma has spent far too many years giving to others. Now it's her turn to be loved, cherished, and spoiled the way every dog should be. Could you be the family that shows her what happily ever after looks like?If you believe Gemma is the missing piece your family has been searching for, please fill out an adoption application on our website. She has waited a long time for her second chance.
