About Gumby

Meet Gumby! This friendly young dog has been thriving in foster care since March 8th. In just a short time, he’s shown an incredible affinity for other dogs, gets along beautifully with cats, and is quite the social butterfly, even ignoring livestock. On walks, he shines on the leash, making outings a pleasure. Gumby is still adjusting to home life, working on crate training, and finding his comfort in a safe environment. After spending 84 days in a shelter and over eight months fending for himself, this new stability is a big change. His past has not diminished his love for canine companions. Rescued after being spotted making friends in a neighborhood, Gumby is all about building connections. He would thrive in a home with other dogs and with a patient adopter ready to help him build trust. If you’re seeking a gentle, affectionate buddy who's ready for a fresh start, Gumby could be your ideal match!
