About Gumball

Gumball was pulled from the Brownfield, Texas shelter after his owner didn’t come for him. He’s a tough, young, and spunky pug mix with an unmistakably alpha personality. Play comes naturally to him: he’s great fun with puppies and mellow, submissive dogs, but can’t safely be around other dominant males—or even assertive females. This has gotten physical in the past; after a scuffle, Gumball wound up with a crooked right eye that can’t be fixed. He shows boundless energy and enthusiasm with people, and he thrives on play. Gumball’s best fit is as the only dog in the home. He needs a family ready for a high-spirited, sometimes stubborn companion, but he rewards attention with affection and entertainment. Gumball does not get along with cats, but he enjoys children. Finding him a committed, dog-savvy adopter with a stable, single-pet household would set him up best. Ready to meet your new best friend?
