Gidget's Story

Gidget is a 2 year old Shih-Tzu who arrived here about 10 days ago. She had just been spayed, so that's why she is wearing the cone. Since we have to wait 10-14 days to give her a bath or groom her she is a little scruffy, but still such a cutie how can you resist? <br/><br/>Gidget is a loving, people-oriented girl with a big personality! She’s an affectionate “in-your-face” cuddler who believes kisses are the best way to say hello. If you want a dog who will greet you like you’re her whole world, Gidget is it.<br/><br/>Good With: Dogs <br/><br/>House Trained: Yes <br/><br/>Leash Manners: Good <br/><br/>Special Notes: Enjoys chasing cats, so she’d do best in a cat-free home or with a very dog-savvy cat. Loves sleeping in bed with her people. Gidget would thrive with a family who enjoys snuggles and doesn’t mind a little extra love. She walks well on leash for adventures and settles nicely at home. <br/><br/>Gidget does have some skin issues that could be allergies but also could be from her previous environment. Because allergies are very common in her breed you should expect that she may have skin issues, at least seasonally, that may require medication. <br/><br/>Ready to add endless kisses to your life? Gidget may be your girl!<br/><br/>You can find her application at www.homesfurhounds.org<br/><br/>She is located in Williamsburg, Va.

Homes Fur Hounds, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
1. Once you have identified the dog(s) you are interested in meeting, you must submit an Adoption Application. You can find the application at https://www.homesfurhounds.org 2. Be patient. We occasionally have a high volume of applications, especially on puppies. 3. If your application is approved you will be contacted to arrange a meet and greet with the dog(s) you are interested in meeting. Whenever we have more than one applicant who is approved, we set up the meet and greet in the order in which the applications were received. 4. We are a small rescue group and do require home checks. Therefore, we only adopt to VA, NC and MD. Exceptions are made for medically needy or seniors if no qualified applicant is located in our adoption area. 5. We do keep applications on file for 6 months, so even if you aren’t selected for a particular dog, if you see another dog of interest, let us know and we will consider your application at that time. 6. Please don’t be offended if you are not selected to adopt. We try to match the dog with the BEST home for them. Just because you weren’t selected for a specific dog does not mean you can’t apply for another one. 7. Our adoption fee is $300.00.
