About Gertrude
Gertrude is an older lady with a lot of character, confidence, and warmth. She’s a large female who brings a calm presence, but don’t mistake her for dull—there’s still a bit of spark left in those eyes. Even with her senior status, Gertrude gets bursts of playfulness and enjoys either a stroll in the yard or settling in next to her people at the end of the day. Her easygoing nature shines through in those quieter moments; she’s the type of dog that brings the room together. Gertrude isn’t just looking for a place to rest. She’s looking for someone who wants the company of an old soul with a soft heart. She needs to be your only dog, and she’s house trained, so you don’t have to worry about puppy messes at this stage of life. Born November 16, she’s a Scorpio—expect plenty of loyal companionship and just the right amount of stubborn charm. Gertrude is currently in Blaine, MN, waiting for her second act to begin.
