Meet Gorgeous. Her name is a daily reminder of how far she's come. Found in rough shape—malnourished, patches of hair missing, injuries from being hit by vehicles—she’s faced just about every challenge a dog could. She’s been through surgery to repair her hip and months of rehab, but she pulled through with grit and attitude to spare. Now she’s healthy, with a shiny coat, a full figure at 70 pounds, and heterochromatic eyes that draw you in. Gorgeous is a 2.5-year-old spayed Shepherd/Catahoula Leopard Dog mix. She’s playful, absolutely loves toys, and walks beautifully on leash. Most dogs are fine by her, as long as they keep things respectful. She’d do well with a family that mixes outdoor adventures and lazy afternoons on the couch—a travel buddy and Netflix sidekick rolled into one. Independent streaks run through her; she’s self-sufficient, likely a holdover from fending for herself for years. There's one non-negotiable: she can climb a fence, so a fully wooden fence is a must. Otherwise, she'll Houdini her way out of a play yard the moment boredom strikes. She gets along with both dogs and children.
