About Gemma

Gemma is a brindle Pit Bull mix that perfectly embodies her vibrant personality. She thrives on energetic family fun and enjoys winding down with calm movie nights on the couch. Gemma loves being close to her humans and prefers to be the star of the show as the only non-human in the household. Playtime means everything to her—she's ready for a game of tug of war anytime, and she'll ensure her toys are durable, often turning the insides to the outside. Gemma's playful spirit means she’s best suited for families with older kids, as she can be a bit boisterous but adores children of all ages. Health-wise, Gemma has triumphed over heartworm after completing her treatment. She also has a condition called "cherry eye," which won’t affect her vision or joy at all. Gemma has been on the lookout for her forever humans for quite some time. She’s ready to bring her love and affection into a home.
