Gisselle's Story

Meet Gissel!<br/><br/>German Shepherd Mix<br/>Weight: 35lbs<br/>Estimated Birthday: 11/12/2024<br/><br/>Hi, I’m Gisselle: part dog, part Velcro, and judging by my looks... possibly part coyote (jokingly). <br/><br/>I’m petite, adorable, cross-eyed (my foster moms favorite thing), and I have enough personality packed into this little body to keep you laughing every single day.<br/><br/>I’ve already done the mom thing. I raised my babies, made sure they were taken care of, and watched every single one find their forever family. Now I’ve officially retired from motherhood and I’m accepting applications for my new position: Professional Spoiled House Dog<br/><br/>Here’s what my perfect home looks like...<br/><br/> DOGS?! WHERE?! I LOVE playing with other dogs. Give me a doggy sibling who appreciates a good game and we’re going to have a blast. I could be an only dog as well! <br/><br/> Cats are friends too... right?! I’m cat friendly with a dog-savvy kitty. If they calmly hang out, cool! If they take off running, though... obviously they just started a game of chase without telling me. I’m not trying to hurt them... I just want in on the fun!<br/><br/> I’m cute AND smart. My foster mom has taught me sit, stay, and even how to patiently wait for my food until she tells me it’s okay to eat. I love learning because making my humans happy makes ME happy.<br/><br/> I’ve got some GO in me! I’m an energetic, playful, silly girl who would love a family that will keep my brain and body busy. Toys, games, adventures, another playful pup.. I’m in!<br/><br/>And then there’s my favorite hobby... Being approximately 3 inches away from my person at all times.<br/><br/>Personal space? Never heard of her. I’m a total Velcro girl. Once I decide you’re my human, congratulations... you now have a tiny cross-eyed coyote sidekick. <br/><br/>But when I’m done with my shenanigans, I know how to relax. You’ll find me lounging on my foster dad’s recliner, chewing on my toys or stretched out for a very important afternoon nap.<br/><br/>I’ve already spent my time taking care of everyone else. Now I’m ready for someone to take care of me. <br/><br/>If you’re looking for a smart, playful, goofy, affectionate little shadow who will make you laugh and follow you everywhere...<br/><br/>Hi. <br/>I’m Gisselle. And I think you’ve been looking for me. <br/>Could that be you? <br/><br/>* Fully vaccinated, microchipped, & spayed<br/>* Kennel & potty trained<br/>* Dog friendly, kid friendly, & cat friendly<br/>* Located in Chambersburg, Pa<br/><br/>Want to meet this sweetheart?

Sunnyside Street Dogs's Adoption Policy
Application is received and reviewed. References will be checked. A home visit in person or on face time will be completed at a mutually convenient time. After the adoption fee paid and contract(s) signed, the dog or puppy can be picked up or transported. Transportation is included in the adoption fee if you live outside of Texas. The availability of the transport company, foster or volunteer transporter, and adopter will determine when the dog unites with their new forever person/people. Pets going on transport will have a health certificate completed by a veterinarian declaring the pet healthy for transport. Read more on transport below. If a dog/puppy goes to their forever home without being spayed or neutered, the adopter needs to sign a sterilization contract - promising they will get their dog/puppy spayed or neutered. Listed breed and age are based on a best guess estimation by rescue and veterinary staff; DNA tests are not included in adoption. If a dog is adopted out of state, they will arrive to their destination via ground transport, unless the adopter will pick up. We coordinate with multiple transport services that operate weekly to Eastern states and bi-weekly or monthly to Western states from Texas to your state or a neighboring state. These are ground transports using third party vehicles (vans/buses) converted for dog transport. Each adopter has the ability to track the van using the app Life360, and receives updates from transport along the way. Facebook chats are another resource to stay informed on tracking dogs on transport. Please be able to use one of these available services if you wish to follow your adopted dog on transport.
