My name is Gizmo. My name is all I have left of my old life. I'm an 11 yr. old JRT mix that once had a family that held me and spoiled me with treats. They took me to the shelter and a lady came to save me from an uncertain fate.

My foster home has three cats that don't interest me at all! I'm also living with five dogs and I'm doing well. I'm fine in a crate, but I prefer to be in a room when no one is with me. I'm fine in your bed or in my own. I actually enjoy having a quiet place to nap.

I'm completely housetrained. I go potty and I'm ready to go back inside. I like to be held and to lie in your lap, but if you can't hold me I'll just find a soft spot to get comfortable. I don't bark unless other dogs bark first, then I chime in. I do well on a leash and would love to go for walks with you.

I'm affecionate, but not the kissing type. I have many good years ahead of me to love someone new. I've adapted easily to a lot of change recently and I still love everyone.

I like to play "catch the toy" and I'll bring it back to you. I can easily run up and down steps, but I only weigh 11 lbs so you can carry me if you want to. I'd prefer a home without children or one with teenagers.

If you know someone looking for a small lap dog with good manners, please tell them about me. My health is good and my teeth are good. I'm spayed and up-to-date on my shots. DOB 3/29/1999. Application, home visit, and adoption fee will apply. Transportation can be arranged.
