About GivenchyMom

Givenchy—sometimes called Mama G—is a 3-year-old black mouth cur mix looking for her forever home in St. Peters, MO. She’s a resilient spirit, having weathered a tough winter on her own before arriving at the shelter. At first, Givenchy stuck to her crate and needed time to come out of her shell, but now she’s warmed up and greets her days with wagging and the hopeful eyes of a dog eager for companionship. Givenchy weighs in around 40 lbs and wears a lovely tan coat. She adores the company of other dogs and lights up when she gets to run and play with canine pals. She is crate trained and keeps her space tidy, and while she still tends to be a bit shy with new people, she’s quick to give affection once trust is built. She thrives with patience and a gentle approach, rewarding it with loyalty, cuddles, and kisses. Givenchy needs a home with a yard—she’s happiest getting her zoomies out and would do well with another friendly dog. She’s come a long way and will make a devoted, low-key companion for someone willing to give her a little time and space to blossom. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
