About Gemma

Gemma is a young, sweet dog looking for her forever home. At just 1 year old and weighing 22 pounds, she has a charming blend of Terrier and Chihuahua traits, sporting a lovely brindle and white/cream coat. She came into the shelter from Dalton Drive in Nelsonville. To meet Gemma, appointments are preferred, although walk-ins are also welcomed. If you have another dog or children in your home, they’ll need to join the meet and greet to ensure everyone gets along. Gemma is not yet spayed and has not received vaccinations but will be prepared for her new adventure with her future family. Adoption fees are $125, which includes a dog license and basic services. This could be the beginning of something special together!
