Meet G.I. Jane — A Tender Heart Ready to Blossom

G.I. Jane is an 8-month-old lab/cattle dog mix is as sweet as they come. G.I. Jane may still be young, but her heart is already full of quiet love and trust.

When she meets new people, she does the most touching thing — she army crawls right up to them. It’s her gentle way of saying she means no harm… only love. This submissive, endearing gesture shows just how kind, sensitive, and eager to please she truly is.

G.I. Jane gets along well with other dogs and would likely enjoy having a canine companion to help show her the ropes. She’s also non-reactive around cats, though like any new friendship, slow and thoughtful introductions will help everyone feel comfortable.

While she hasn’t been tested with children, her soft nature suggests she could thrive in a loving home where interactions are guided with patience and care. As always, supervised introductions help set everyone up for success.

She has already begun learning the basics of walking on a leash and is ready to continue building confidence with someone who believes in her.

G.I. Jane is at that beautiful in-between stage — no longer a tiny puppy, but still wonderfully open to learning what love and safety feel like. With patience, encouragement, and a warm place to land, she will grow into the loyal, devoted companion she’s meant to be.

All she’s waiting for is a forever home where she can finally exhale… and be cherished.
