Gabi was surrendered to the Sonoma County Animal Shelter after her previous owner could no longer care for her. One look into her soulful eyes and we knew we couldn’t resist this lovely little lady. Gabi loves people. She loves snuggles and pets and cuddles. She can’t get enough attention! This also means that Gabi has some issues being alone. We believe being in the shelter has caused her to develop some separation anxiety. She uses her hound dog side to let out some mighty barks when she is lonely! She will need a home where she isn’t left alone much, hopefully that shouldn’t be an issue during SIP! In her previous life Gabi was a backyard only dog, so she still needs some help when it comes to house training and overall inside manners, but we are firm believers that old dogs can learn new tricks!
Gabi doesn’t have the best leash manners, she can pull pretty hard for such a little girl. She’s still got a lot of energy for her age! She would benefit from a home willing to take her out for long walks during quiet times or in less busy areas so she can sniff to her heart’s delight! She’s not very interested in toys, she’s more of an explorer than a player. Gabi does have some reactivity issues with other dogs. She’ll need to be the only pet in the home, no cats or other pups for her. She would do best in a quieter area so she has less activity react to as well. We also think that Gabi would prefer a home without young children in it, this mature lady prefers a calm home for cuddling!
