About Gizmo

Meet Gizmo! This adorable Schnoodle is ready for his forever home. Although he’s blind, Gizmo quickly adapts to new spaces and explores with a curious spirit. He enjoys going on sniffaris in his foster’s yard, hunting for squirrels and taking in all the scents nature has to offer. At around 11 lbs, this small male is a golden oldie, showcasing a lovely personality that’s both cuddly and sweet. Gizmo is friendly with dogs and loves to cuddle while also enjoying his cozy dog bed. His new home should ideally have no stairs, or they should be blocked off to ensure his safety. He has some unique needs, especially when it comes to food, as he’s had a dental procedure and now requires soft food. Gizmo is neutered, microchipped, housebroken, and up to date on vaccinations. Additionally, he’s been known to take leisurely walks without making much noise—he rarely barks or sheds. While he’s not been tested with kids or cats, he might do well with mellow cats and older kids who understand his needs. Gizmo came into care as a stray, so his history is a mystery, but he’s ready to make new memories with the right family! Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
