Sponsorship Request: Gizmo is recovering from skin problems from before he was rescued, and in the short term needs some special help. His medicines both help his skin and fur to recover, and help with itchiness during that recovery. $11 gets him the ear ointment for several weeks, while $25 gets him medicated baths during that time. $100 keeps him from scratching and re-damaging his skin for a month. Even if you cannot adopt or foster Gizmo, a sponsorship donation will help pay for his skin and fur recovery.

Description

 

I’m Gizmo, a 5-year-old Lab mix and the ultimate cuddle companion with a heart full of love to give! I’m a mellow, affectionate pup who thrives on snuggles, belly rubs, and just being by your side. Whether I’m sunbathing, snoozing on the couch, or greeting you with a tail wag and my signature tummy tax, I’m happiest when I’m soaking up attention. While I’m mostly a laid-back guy, I do enjoy a good adventure—car rides for pup cups, casual hikes, and even trips to the beach (though I’m still figuring out those waves!). Plus, if you’ve got food—especially peanut butter—I’m all ears!

I’ve mastered potty and crate training, and I’m working on getting better on a leash. My favorite things? Eating, sleeping, sunbathing, snacking, and more snacking. I’m pretty unbothered by loud noises and handle grooming like a champ, but I do need time to warm up to new people. Big crowds and other dogs, especially larger ones, can make me nervous, so I’d do best as the only pup or with a patient owner who can continue helping me build confidence.

I’m looking for a loving home where I can be my snuggly, laid-back self with a human who enjoys constant companionship as much as I do. Since I experience some separation anxiety, I’d love someone who’s around often to keep me company.
