Meet Gigi — The Dragon Lady of Love, Laughter, and Zoomies 

Gigi is a 3‑year‑old, 20.6‑pound bundle of sweetness, silliness, and spirited personality. Healthy, spayed, and up to date on vaccines, she’s a soft‑furred, underbite‑rocking little character whose tongue hangs out more often than not — and trust us, it only adds to her charm.

She currently lives with other dogs and is wonderfully friendly when meeting new canine friends. But she does take her treasures seriously: food, toys, treats, and sometimes even her person are things she prefers not to share. She has a history of resource guarding with other dogs (never with humans), so she’s fed separately and thrives with structure, supervision, and a dog-savvy home. She’s learning to play and share, but if startled, she may snap at another dog. She also plays rough and can be a bit of a bully at times, so she’s best matched with confident, sturdy dogs or as a solo queen.

Gigi is a riot in the best way — rambunctious, mischievous, and full of puppy-like energy. She can jump impressively high, zoom around like a tiny dragon on a mission, and shred a toy in seconds with her very sharp teeth. Tough toys are a must. She’s also known for her hilarious “dragon snarl” when she’s excited or playing, which earned her the nickname Dragon Lady.

Despite her wild-woman moments, she’s incredibly loving. Gigi is a world-class snuggler, a kiss-giver, and a Velcro companion who wants to be near her people. She sleeps through the night in her own bed, enjoys couch snuggle time, and welcomes strangers with happy enthusiasm. She’s great with grooming, nails, and face wiping, and she doesn’t bark much — only when someone’s at the door or when she’s advocating for herself.

She walks fine on leash (though she may refuse if it’s cold), but she truly thrives with a fenced yard and knows that routine well. She’s partially housebroken and will stay consistent if taken out every 2–3 hours, but she doesn’t yet signal when she needs to go. She may jump when excited and occasionally have a little pee accident.

Gigi does experience some separation anxiety and can become destructive if left loose or alone too long. She does well in her crate but may protest briefly. She’ll do best with someone home often or able to take her along — she’s happiest when her people are close.

Ideal Home

• Someone home frequently or able to include her in daily life
• A family committed to structure, training, and positive reinforcement
• Older, dog-savvy children (8+) due to her rough play, jumping and occasional nipping
• A fenced yard preferred
• Either a tolerant, confident resident dog who respects boundaries — or a home where she can be the star
• No known history with cats or small animals

Gigi is a true sweetheart — affectionate, funny, energetic, and endlessly loyal. She knows her name (and her nicknames!) and will follow you around just to be near you. She’s a doll with a big personality, a big heart, and an even bigger desire to love and be loved.

Whoever adopts her is going to be very, very lucky. If you think it could be you, make sure to apply!
