10/29/2017  Dog 4 a Day update:   During my day with Gia we went on several walks through the neighborhood, took a nap, played inside with a tennis ball, and played chase! She was a little shy at first but once i took her home and got her leash off, she explored the house nonstop! She is such a sweetheart and I had lots of fun getting to play with her all day! I am looking forward to seeing her again soon!

10/04/2017:  Update on Gia from her foster:

Thank you for keeping us informed on her progress and if necessary would foster her again if it would help find her a family that would play with her and love her as she deserves

NEW update Sept. 2017     My husband and I had the pleasure to host "Gia" for the weekend during hurricane Irma. What a love bug this furry baby is, she is a none barker, none winier and a very sweet little girl. I would have kept her but I need to get my yard fenced (my preference) Gia is a good walker, does not pull and a great eater. I am hoping this sweet little girl finds a wonderful forever home. The family or person that gets her will have hit a home run in the doggie world.And she does not afraid of the vacuum. Love you Judy and love you Gia!!...

GIA GOT TO GO OUT FOR DOG 4 A DAY w/ RACHELLE!! HERE IS WHAT SHE HAD TO SAY ABOUT GIA........."Amazing dog!!! She's smart, extremely well behaved & even when we went for a walk she would explore for a bit then come back next to me. She is a bit nervous at first and is a bit shy around cats. She opens up more the longer she is with you. I wanted to adopt her because she is so amazing, but I rent and can't have her size dog. When we went for a walk and people would come past, she would walk behind me then after seeing they were ok would want to meet them!"

Gia was a stray that was brought into a high kill shelter, where she was rescued by PRBJ. We do know this sweet girl did have a litter of puppies, but they were not with her.  She is a really good dog and is great with kids and other dogs. She is ready for adoption and would love to go to her forever home!
