Gigi's Story

Meet Gigi!<br/><br/>A spirited one-year-old German Shepherd mix currently living in San Dimas, CA, whose essence is a radiant whirl of playful energy wrapped in a striking red and black coat.<br/><br/>Gigi is a vibrant young girl with an affectionate heart and a mind eager to learn! She thrives on routine, adventure, and companionship. Every morning at 6:30 AM, she’s ready for breakfast before embarking on her favorite ritual – a refreshing walk in the park where she sniffs every flower, greets the morning sun, and showcases her elegant shepherd trot. Later in the day, she loves playing ball with the same enthusiasm as if discovering the game for the first time, her tail wagging like a metronome of pure joy!<br/><br/>She currently weighs 50 pounds and will become a large, strong beauty. Gigi has been working on her obedience training and already knows commands like sit, wait, and leave it. With her high intelligence and desire to please, her new family will find that she thrives on positive reinforcement and consistent guidance to build her confidence around new people and dogs.<br/><br/>This affectionate pup is still working on crate training and managing her separation anxiety, so she needs a family who can offer structure, patience, and lots of love to help her feel secure when left alone. Because she bonds so closely with her person, her loyalty and protective instincts shine through in the sweetest ways – from leaning her body into yours for cuddles to watching over you with gentle eyes.<br/><br/>Gigi is currently attending doggy day camp and continues to learn new skills and is socializing with other pups. She has had some successful playdates with other dogs, although she can be shy at first, and she hasn’t been around cats to know how she might respond. She’s never been around children, but her guardian believes she could do well with older kids who can handle her exuberant energy.<br/><br/>Gigi is spayed, house-trained, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations. She needs a new loving home with a securely fenced yard and an active family ready for her joyful energy, intelligence, and silly affectionate quirks.<br/><br/>Could your heart and home be the next great adventure for Gigi’s journey?<br/><br/>If you're interested in providing Gigi with a loving home, please email adopt@joyfulpets.com for more information on adopting her! Please note that Gigi will remain with her current family until a suitable new home is found for her.<br/><br/>Also, Gigi is open to a long-distance adoption—love knows no distance when finding your perfect companion!

Joyful Pets Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
At Joyful Pets, our adoption process is designed to create a smooth, supportive experience for both pets and the families who welcome them. We feature pets who are being lovingly rehomed by their current families, as well as adoptable pets from our trusted rescue partners. You can start by browsing our adoptable pets on Petfinder. When you’re interested in a pet, select “Start Your Inquiry” on that pet’s profile to connect with us. If your home aligns with the pet’s needs, we’ll coordinate an introduction with the pet’s current family and arrange a meet-and-greet. Please note that pets listed through our rescue partners follow their own adoption process, requirements, and fees. These details are provided directly by the rescue. For pets rehomed through Joyful Pets’ direct rehoming program, adoption fees currently start at $150 for dogs, $95 for cats, and $50 for birds, rabbits, ferrets, or other small pets. When helpful, we may also offer a foster-to-adopt trial period so families and pets can ensure a great match before finalizing the adoption. We’re grateful that you’re choosing adoption and giving a pet the opportunity to join a caring family. Our goal is to make the process clear, joyful, and well-supported, with resources available every step of the way.
