About Gertie

Gertie is a sweet girl with a loving personality who adores the company of her people. She greets friends with a wagging tail and is always ready for belly rubs. Gertie thrives on companionship and feels most comfortable when she's close to those she trusts. While she's still adjusting to life outside, Gertie is working hard on her confidence during walks.

However, she does enjoy the company of other dogs and may benefit from a canine sibling. With continued support and kindness, Gertie is on her way to becoming a loyal and devoted companion.
