About Gigi

Gigi, a one-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, is an energetic and incredibly sweet girl. She thrives in the company of other dogs and has made a wonderful adjustment to her new pack, including a playful 2-month-old Aussie puppy and a larger 6-month-old friend. Gigi loves to run and play, and she has a particular fondness for water, happily standing in water trays to quench her thirst while waiting for her kiddie pool to return after her spay surgery. This agile and intelligent pup needs someone familiar with her breed to provide a safe environment with ample room for play and mental stimulation. Gigi's journey to the rescue began when she was found wandering in a Walmart parking lot, seeking help. Now, she’s ready to find her forever home. Gigi is a petite girl, weighing less than 25 lbs, and comes fully vetted, which includes a ProHeart 6 injection. Her heartworm test is negative, and she is vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. Note that Gigi is located in Lucedale, MS, and her adoption fee is $450, which covers transportation. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today!
