Gisselle - German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Meet Gissel!

German Shepherd Mix
Weight: 35lbs
Estimated Birthday: 11/12/2024

Hi, I’m Gisselle: part dog, part Velcro, and judging by my looks... possibly part coyote (jokingly).

I’m petite, adorable, cross-eyed (my foster moms favorite thing), and I have enough personality packed into this little body to keep you laughing every single day.

I’ve already done the mom thing. I raised my babies, made sure they were taken care of, and watched every single one find their forever family. Now I’ve officially retired from motherhood and I’m accepting applications for my new position: Professional Spoiled House Dog

Here’s what my perfect home looks like...

DOGS?! WHERE?! I LOVE playing with other dogs. Give me a doggy sibling who appreciates a good game and we’re going to have a blast. I could be an only dog as well!

Cats are friends too... right?! I’m cat friendly with a dog-savvy kitty. If they calmly hang out, cool! If they take off running, though... obviously they just started a game of chase without telling me. I’m not trying to hurt them... I just want in on the fun!

I’m cute AND smart. My foster mom has taught me sit, stay, and even how to patiently wait for my food until she tells me it’s okay to eat. I love learning because making my humans happy makes ME happy.

I’ve got some GO in me! I’m an energetic, playful, silly girl who would love a family that will keep my brain and body busy. Toys, games, adventures, another playful pup.. I’m in!

And then there’s my favorite hobby... Being approximately 3 inches away from my person at all times.

Personal space? Never heard of her. I’m a total Velcro girl. Once I decide you’re my human, congratulations... you now have a tiny cross-eyed coyote sidekick.

But when I’m done with my shenanigans, I know how to relax. You’ll find me lounging on my foster dad’s recliner, chewing on my toys or stretched out for a very important afternoon nap.

I’ve already spent my time taking care of everyone else. Now I’m ready for someone to take care of me.

If you’re looking for a smart, playful, goofy, affectionate little shadow who will make you laugh and follow you everywhere...
