Gabrielle

Gabrielle aka "Gabby" is a 6-7 month old beautiful, mostly black, female. She was an owner surrender from the Sacramento SPCA.

Her elderly owner had Gabby for 4 months and gave her tons of love and allowed her to be the house princess, but probably didn't take her out much or enforce any rules or boundaries. Gabby has little experience on a leash and is currently learning leash manners. She can be quite dramatic when asked to do something she doesn't want to do, but is getting a little better with consistent leadership. She is an excellent listener, comes when called, knows basic commands and is house trained. She enjoys chasing her ball and stuffed toys.

Gabby is an absolute love, loves to be near her people and enjoys meeting new people. Due to a lack of socialization Gabby is currently quite reactive to other dogs. In her foster home, she is learning to meet and be nice to other dogs and will need continuous dog socialization. She is curious about the cats in her foster home and leaves them alone when told. It is unknown how Gabby is with young children but does great with the respectful teenagers in her foster home.

Gabby would be a fabulous addition to a family who knows what it takes to socialize a dog like this and is committed to her continuous socialization and obedience training.

This is a Level 3 Dog. Please be sure you understand what a dog of this Level requires.
