About Gigi

Meet Gigi! After three tough years on the streets, Gigi still embodies softness and gentle sweetness. This beagle mix weighs about 35 pounds and possesses a quiet, observant nature. Initially, she’s a bit shy, a natural response given her rough past. However, once she feels the warmth of kindness, she leans in, craving the affection she’s long missed. Gigi thrives alongside other dogs, so a home with a steady canine companion would be ideal. However, her past survival instincts make her a flight risk; she’ll need a securely fenced yard, not just a tie-out or supervision. She knows how to take care of herself and has successfully navigated her way out before. What she truly needs now is the stability she’s never known: patience and a safe home where she can learn to be someone’s beloved pet. Gigi is affectionate with adults and beautifully house trained. She sleeps soundly in her crate and remains unfazed by storms. While she isn't aggressive towards children, she tends to startle and will likely flee, so a home with teenagers and older kids is preferred. Gigi is looking for a loving forever home in Nashville, TN. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
