Gala Bull Terrier Mix Washington, DC

** I am currently being housed at our Oglethorpe location. Come meet me at 71 Oglethorpe St NW, every day from 12pm-7pm. Please arrive no later than 6:30 p.m. to allow ample time to interact with adoptable dogs. Or visit humanerescuealliance.org/how-to-adopt to learn more.

Gala is a dignified, stoic, gentle dog seeking reassurance and kindness. Everyone here is going out of their way to comfort her. She is so SWEET, but her confidence is hiding at the moment. Gala was a stray dog, so we don't know her back story. While here, she is doing her very best to adapt. We have been fussing over her and we are winning her heart with yummy treats and gentle conversation. And she is now seeking out pettings and affection. Gala has a heart of gold. She would LOVE a home with folks that will help her bloom!

And speaking of "blooming" a volunteer who recently took Gala out of the shelter for a morning adventure had this to share: Gala is a sweet miss. While the shelter makes her nervous, the moment you get away from the hubbub, she's a different dog - adventurous (hello car rides!), loves to sniff, finds perfect sticks, and asks for belly scratches. She walks nicely on the leash and was an angel in the car. She could use a home that will show her the world isn't so scary and give her a safe place to come out of her shell.

Please visit this lovely ginger pup today and show her the love she deserves. And please check out Gala's video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gC6RYqiW95Y
