About Gigi

Meet Gigi! After three years of life on the streets and raising multiple litters, Gigi remains a picture of soft, gentle sweetness. This beagle mix weighs around 35 pounds and has a calm, observant demeanor. While she's good with people, Gigi can be shy initially, a trait developed from her tough past. Once she feels kindness, she leans into it, as if she has been waiting for affection all along. Gigi gets along well with other dogs and finds comfort in their company, so having a steady canine companion would be ideal. However, her survival instincts are strong. A securely fenced yard is essential—not just a tie-out or supervision, but a solid fence, as she knows how to escape. What Gigi needs is the opposite of her past: stability, patience, and a safe home where she can learn to simply be a cherished pet. She is incredibly dog-friendly, affectionate with adults, and beautifully house trained. Gigi sleeps quietly in her crate and shows no fear during storms. While she has no issues with children, their unpredictability can startle her, so a home with teenagers and older kids would be best for this sweet momma. Ready to give Gigi her forever home?
