Gary

Gary's adoption price has been donated in full!<br/><br/>Meet Gary, a one-year-old Retriever/Pit mix weighing 45 pounds. Gary is a big goofball with an even bigger heart! This enthusiastic boy is full of personality and is guaranteed to make you laugh with his legendary zoomies, silly antics, and favorite pastime—tossing his toys into the air and chasing after them. He loves to play and absolutely soaks up attention from his people.<br/>Gary is also still learning how to interact with other dogs. When meeting new canine friends, he can be a little unsure and defensive at first because he simply isn't quite sure what to do. With slow introductions, reassurance, and patience, he settles in quickly and will likely enjoy having a dog companion. That said, he'd also be perfectly happy soaking up all the attention as your one and only pup.<br/><br/>Gary is looking for an adopter who enjoys training, understands that learning takes time, and wants to build a true partnership with their dog. In return, you'll get a loyal, affectionate companion who is eager to learn, loves to have fun, and will keep you smiling with his goofy personality every single day.<br/><br/>If you're ready to help a wonderful dog discover just how great life can be, Gary is ready to meet you. He has all the potential to become an incredible best friend—he's just waiting for someone to believe in him.<br/><br/>This pet is available for adoption on 1/31/2026 at 11:52 AM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.
