Gatsby
A gentle, affectionate soul with a shy start and a very happy future ahead.
Gatsby is a 1.5-year-old, 23-lb sweetheart who may be a little shy at first, but underneath is a playful, funny, and deeply loving dog.
When he first arrived at the shelter, Gatsby was absolutely terrified. Everything felt overwhelming - until a kind foster sat quietly with him in his kennel and showed him he was safe.
And that's when everything began to change.
Since moving into foster care, Gatsby has come along by leaps and bounds. His playful side is shining through, his confidence is growing every day, and his sweet personality is impossible to miss.
He's great with other dogs and would be happy to join a home with a canine friend to help continue building his confidence.
Gatsby is the kind of dog who will bond deeply with his people - loyal, loving, and always happy to be by your side.
If you're looking for a gentle companion with a playful streak and a big heart, Gatsby is ready to meet you.
