Sadly for the three of them, their early months coincided with another outbreak of Distemper in the Sanctuary, and so they missed their window when most of our dogs are adopted - early puppyhood. This is such a shame, and a pressing problem for us, as the months slip by they become less attractive to most potential adopters. There's no real logic behind this - after all, the character and nature of a young dog becomes apparent as they approach adulthood, so a potential adopter has a much clearer idea the temperament of their new family member.

Gia is a very affectionate young lady and we hope it surely can't be much longer before she finds a home of her own.
