Story
Gizmo is a sweet and social 10 year old boy who is looking for a home that will give him lots of love and attention. He has never been violent, gets along with everyone, and loves to play and cuddle. Gizmo has severe separation anxiety, so we are looking for owners who work from home most of the week, has another dog/cat who will play with him and are familiar with dogs who have anxiety. We also want to keep a relationship with his new owners, so we can visit him throughout the rest of his life.
