Part of the fun of adopting a puppy from an animal rescue is the surprise that comes along with their growth. Their size at adulthood is simply a guess and cannot be guaranteed. When you adopt a puppy from GPG, we trust that you will love and care for this animal regardless of their actual adult size and physical appearance.

If you are interested in a meet and greet for adoption for Keeno, please fill out an application on our website at www.gatewaypets.org/adopt. If you are interested in learning more about Keeno or the adoption process at GPG, please email placement@gatewaypets.org
