DESCRIPTION
My name is Gypsy. I am a stunning full grown 60 lb 1 year old beauty. I am dignified, friendly and active. I lived in a home for the first few months of my life. Unfortunately, my family decided they didn't have time for a dog. I am not high maintenance but life happens. I am a very smart and loyal pup. I love my people; I am loyal and attentive and my favorite place is on the couch or in a human's lap. I also spend my days playing and hanging out with my dog friends. I am around big and small, young and old! I am fine with them but more focused on my humans. I will play with the other dogs once I am comfortable but also happy just hanging out around them. I would thrive with a fenced in yard. I am housebroken and crate trained. I have not been around young children so we think 10+ is a good place to start. I have not met a stranger though... a nice lady came to take my pictures and I was happy to have a new visitor! I have so much to learn and so much potential. Yes, I am good with cats!
