Gitzi's Story

Meet Gitzi, a 10-month old, 29-pound Husky/Shepherd mix, who is alert, adorable, and possesses the perkiest ears this side of the Mississippi. It kinda looks like she can fly! Who knows...maybe she can! ;-)<br/><br/>Friendly beyond belief, Gitzi knows no stranger. She greets anyone and everyone, and covers them in kisses. She’s the same way with other dogs. She wants to play with them all. Gentle, loving, and extremely sweet, it’s impossible to ignore this girl’s charisma. Gitzi is also very smart. She learned how to use pee pads almost immediately, she’s starting to do her bathroom business outside, and she’s well on her way to being fully housebroken. <br/><br/>Gitzi can use some practice when it comes to her leash manners, but she’s making steady progress every day. She has a strong prey drive which causes her to pull on her leash, but she is responsive to correction and wants to earn your praise. And treats? Oh boy, food always gets her attention. She already sits on command! <br/><br/>For an active person, Gitzi would be a dream come true. This high energy gal can hike for miles without tiring, can trot alongside you while you jog, and can walk seemingly forever. She loves her toys, but does not engage in any resource guarding. She does beautifully when left alone, and you come back home, she is thrilled, but does not jump all over you.<br/><br/>As active as she is, Gitzi is an excellent sleeper as long as she’s had an adequate amount of exercise. She’s also very mushy, cuddly, and affectionate. She makes the absolute warmest, fuzziest, best snuggle-buddy! If you’ve got the time to walk her, run her around, and continue to train her, she will be the happiest, healthiest, best furry companion you can ever imagine having. <br/><br/>If you would like to adopt this Rockstar, please visit www.pupstarzrescue.org for an application!<br/><br/>www.pupstarzrescue.org <br/>Please Follow us on Instagram: @pupstarzrescue<br/>Like us on FaceBook! www.facebook.com/PupStarzRescue<br/><br/>**Puppies are hard work. If you are not ready for a 'new baby' please adopt an adult or senior who need you! PupStarz rescue cannot guarantee the breed, size, temperament, or age of any dog**<br/><br/><br/>**Please note that puppies can grow .5-2.5lbs a week based on their breed**
