Gumbo is a 2-year-old, 79-pound American Bulldog/German Shorthair Pointer mix who has lived through heartbreak and come out the other side full of love. In September 2024, he was rescued after being tied up in a public enclosure during a 100-degree day—abandoned, dehydrated, and nearly defeated. But thanks to one compassionate soul who refused to look away, Gumbo is now safe, thriving in a foster home, and ready for a forever family to call his own.
