Gemma is my name, and I know it well.
I’m a 2-year-old gentle soul, and you’d never know by looking at my sweet face just how many struggles I’ve had to overcome.
I’m a sweet girl who loves attention from everyone! I get along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and kids in my foster home, and I’m always happy to soak up some love and affection.
I’m working on remembering that I don’t have to jump up to get all the love I want, but I’m already really good on a leash and enjoy going for walks.
I’ve got crate training down pat, and I’m learning the potty schedule in my foster home. I’m doing my best to be a good girl and learn all the things that come with being part of a family.
Now I’m ready for the next chapter of my life—a family who will love me, cherish me, and see the sweet girl behind these beautiful eyes.
Maybe that family is you?

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
