Gigi is the newest arrival to CTDR.  Gigi was left at the vet clinic by her owner and then he never came back for her.  She is a beautiful senior lady, 12 years old and is totally vetted.  Gigi’s foster parents report her best qualities are: great eye contact, very affectionate, professional snuggler, well-mannered, rarely barks, happy and very attentive.  And she gets 5 stars as a walking companion. She is fantastic on the leash and can walk a couple miles with ease. She doesn’t pull and isn’t bothered by passing dogs, bikes or people. This chocolate chiweenie is a well adjusted little girl who seems much younger than her years. She has a lot of energy, but at the same time she is calm. She would be very content to hang out on the couch with you or in your lap all day if you would let her. But the minute you are ready for a walk, she’s all in.  

Gigi wants to be picked up and held, but she is a little skittish when you lean over her to pick her up. But once she is in your arms, she is happy as a clam.
