Description:
Update: 9/4/11 Gidget had a rough start for such a young girl and was just misunderstood, she is the best little companion anyone could ask for, her nips are now just little nibbles but only when she is excited. She just needed someone to love her and give her direction, she responds well to correction she really only wants to please, and in return she just wants to be loved and cuddled. Gidget is the best little lap dog anyone could ask for she even moves over when we go to sit down! Gidget is the most precious little girl ever. Whom ever should adopt her is gaurenteed to get the best companion ever! she does fine with kids who are respectful and aren't grabby, or overly energetic. She is a very calm and mellow little girl, she does like soft toys and a chew bone, but she is not your typical hyper and chewy puppy for a 10 month old. She would do well with a retired couple as she just wants a nice lap and lots of love.
Update: Gidget is getting much better about understanding not to nip, she does still do it sometimes when excited but she is not being mean or aggresive. She has the softest hair and as long as she is groomed properly she don't she much at all even though she has longer hair. We are not sure of her breed she has been said to be a papillion and Dachsund mix, also a welsh corgi mix, but one thing I know for sure is she is very soft and loves to be near her person or in their lap! Gidget will make a wonderful new addition to someone who want's a companion that loves to be near them, ride in the car, and don't require much outdoors, she does her bussiness and heads right back for the house. Please consider Giving Gidget her forever home, she will love you forever. update: Gidget is now house trained! yeah! if she is taken out faithfully Gidget does very well in the house, I left her out of her crate and went away for 3 hrs and she did not have any accidents. Gidget does have a protective personality, she is very sweet and as long as you use caution while around others she will do fine. I have noticed that whenever Gidget does her nip and run it is when she is next to me, so she is just protecting me from everyone else. lol her nips don't hurt and it's not an aggresive bite but a warning to back away from her mom. I honestly love this little girl and believe she will make someone who needs a companion a wonderful addition to there home. Gidget would like to be the only dog but it is not mandatory she does do fine with her foster sisters and brother now.
Gidget is new to our rescue, she is a young girl 10 months to a year, so far we know that she likes to dart out and nip her foster brother and sisters and run back to shelter ( no fighting just a nip and run) lol, she tries to chase the cat and does not care for small children. Other than that Gidget is a great little girl, she would do very well in a home with older respectful kids, or just someone who wants a great little companion, she is a lap dog for sure, and rides great in the car. Gidget is working on house training and doing well with only a couple of accidents. Even though she has some issues,(which can be corrected) she is a wonderful little companion, and deserves a second chance at a loving home with someone who will love her for who she is, or be willing to work with her. If you have a quiet home and would like a loving companion please consider Gidget she truley is a little sweet heart who like to give kisses and loves to snuggle.
Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal. Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed. The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label. Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first.
