This super awesome girl is Gem! She arrived because her family could no longer care for her. She is currently looking for a home of her own and hopes that her stay at the shelter is not a long one. She is young and can be very energetic at times, friendly and seeks your attention, just a sweet girl. Gem will chase toys and absolutely loves stuffies, she seems housebroken, knows what to do when there is a crate and knows sit. Gem loves everyone and learns quickly but still has a lot more to learn as she is still a youngster. She will need an owner who is willing to be patient as this girl was not given the benefit of much training so far in her short life. Basic obedience and leash training will really benefit her. The love and time you put into her will come back to you each and everyday. She is a moderate puller on leash, she can be jumpy when she gets excited and she can become mouthy when playing with toys. Gem will need a meet and greet with dogs as she has been social with them at the shelter, she is afraid of the cats and backed out of the room. She will do best in a home with kids over 14 years old. Gem is 8 months old and acts as such so supervision will be essential with any children no matter what their age is, she is 53.4 pounds, up to date on vaccinations, micro-chipped and heart-worm negative. If you are interested in meeting Gem please fill out a Matchmaker Adoption Application so we may arrange a meet and greet for you.
