GYPSY - Hound and Bullmastiff Dog for Adoption in Marietta, Georgia

Meet Gypsy! This lovely 14-year-old senior was surrendered to the shelter on 10/7 because she was having accidents in the house. Sadly, this sweet girl has found herself in an overcrowded shelter when she needs comfort and security the most. Understandably confused by her new surroundings, Gypsy is hoping someone will open their heart and home to her. Volunteers describe her as sweet and mild-mannered. She sits when asked, takes treats gently, and walks beautifully on leash. If you have a soft spot for seniors and can offer frequent potty breaks, please consider meeting Gypsy. She deserves to spend her golden years surrounded by love, not in a shelter.

Gypsy is approximately 14 years old and weighs 72 lbs. She is UTD on vaccines and did test negative for heartworms. She will be microchipped upon adoption. Gypsy is waiting patiently in kennel 48; her ID # is 23232.
