Gemma is a year old (just had a birthday on October 9th), spayed female catahoula mix...and is full-grown at about 45 pounds. She’s the last of a litter of 10 pups, who came to us about 10 months ago. She loves playing fetch...romping with other fosters...and playing keep away. She’s also got cuddling down with her humans...whether it’s a lean-in hug, or a paws-on-the-shoulder hug...and just enough kisses that you don’t mind more!

Gemma is both crate and house trained, and sleeps quietly through the night. I would consider her low-medium energy most of the time. She enjoys kids of all ages at adoption event, and is non-reactive to cats when tested.

Is she your new family member...just fill out an application at hwhanimalrescue.com
