Gucci's Story

Meet Gucci<br/>He came within a heartbeat of never getting his chance — one of 50 dogs saved from euthanasia at a Maryland shelter, pulled back from the edge simply because of the breed he was born into. But here's what those who knew only his breed never got to see: Gucci. The real Gucci. The happy, funny, tail-wagging, treat-obsessed, command-following, absolutely wonderful dog who was in there all along — just waiting for someone to look a little closer.<br/>We looked. And what we found took our breath away.<br/><br/>Gucci is, without question, one of the happiest dogs you will ever meet. It seems almost impossible given what he's been through — but this boy carries zero bitterness, zero baggage, and zero bad days. He woke up with a second chance and decided to make the absolute most of it, and he has been bringing joy and laughter to everyone around him ever since.<br/>He is funny in that wonderful, unscripted way that only dogs can pull off — the kind of humor that catches you off guard and has you laughing before you even know what happened. His personality is big, bright, and completely magnetic.<br/><br/>Don't let the fun fool you though — Gucci is also an impressively well-mannered, well-trained gentleman. He knows his commands and follows them reliably. He is not destructive, has excellent house manners, and is fully housetrained. He sleeps well in his crate like the good boy he absolutely is. And treats? Oh, treats are Gucci's entire motivation system. Flash one in his direction and this boy will do anything — he is treat-motivated to a degree that makes training an absolute joy.<br/>He walks beautifully beside you — no pulling, no chaos, just a happy dog enjoying the fresh air right by your side.<br/><br/>Gucci loves his doggie friends and plays wonderfully with other dogs. He has lived successfully in a home with kids and brought nothing but good energy to that environment. He is outgoing, social, and the kind of dog that makes friends everywhere he goes — human and canine alike.<br/><br/>Gucci was almost a statistic. Instead, he is a miracle with a wagging tail — one of fifty second chances that proved that breed is never the whole story. His story could have ended in Maryland. Instead, it's just getting started.<br/><br/>Fifty dogs got a second chance that day. Gucci is ready to make the most of his — with a family who will love him the way he has always, unquestionably deserved. ❤ï ̧<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $525, includes all shots, sterilized, heartworm negative, dewormed, flea preventative, microchip<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Fancy Cats Rescue Team's Adoption Policy
Once the paperwork has been completed and the adoption fee is paid, you will be able to take your new companion home. You need to provide a carrier for transport. We may contact you after the adoption to follow up and ensure your cat is settling in well. After your cat’s adoption is completed, you are eligible for 30 days of ShelterCare insurance for your new pet at no charge. Go to www.24PetWatch.com for more information. The policy will arrive to you via email within 48 hours of your cat’s adoption. Submitting an adoption application to Fancy Cats Rescue Team does not commit the applicant to that adoption or guarantee adoption approval of the specified or any adoptable cat listed with Fancy Cats. You can complete and submit your adoption application online anytime! Conditions of adoption: You must have a valid identification showing your current address and your age. You must be at least 21 to adopt. If you are renting, we will need a copy of your lease that shows that you are permitted to have a pet and have paid the required deposit. If you own your home, we do verify home ownership. Fancy Cats Rescue Team requires kittens to be adopted in pairs, or have an age appropriate cat/playmate in the home. Fancy Cats Rescue Team follows a general policy of adopting kittens to families with children over the age of 7. You must be able and willing to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and proper care for a cat. For the first 30 days, please keep cat(s) separated and confined to one area; you should not expose your other animals to a new cat until you bring the new cat to the vet for an initial checkup. You must be willing to provide a life-long commitment to the care and well being of your cat. If you cannot make a lifetime commitment (cats can live 15–20 years) to a Fancy Cats cat, please consider adopting from your local shelter whose policies are less stringent than ours. Fancy Cats Rescue Team does not allow or disallow adoptions based on an individual’s race, gender, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, age or disability. Fancy Cats reserves the right to refuse the adoption of any cat without stating a reason. Renters, please bring a copy of your lease that shows you are permitted to have a pet with a receipt that you have paid any required deposit once your application is approved and you are coming to meet and/or adopt a cat. Homeowners, bring a copy of a mortgage statement and utility bill once your application is approved and you are coming to meet and/or adopt a cat.
