At just 3 years old, Gabi has already lived a big life. As a former breeder mama, she’s now ready to embrace a new chapter as a cherished family member. This 13-pound miniature poodle has an unforgettable look—one soulful blue eye and one warm brown eye, both filled with love and longing for her forever person.

Gabi’s Personality

Gabi is a bundle of sweetness, affection, and snuggles. She thrives on human connection and will follow you around like a loyal shadow. Her favorite spot? Right by your feet or on your lap, soaking up as much love as possible. Though Gabi adores being close to her humans, she’s also shy and timid in new situations, needing gentle guidance to build her confidence.

She’s dog-friendly but can get nervous around new people, especially men, and has a protective side that shines when she bonds with her special person. Her ideal match is someone with patience and a quiet, low-energy lifestyle who can help her feel safe and loved.

Daily Life with Gabi

  • Favorite activities: Following her foster mom around the house, snuggling on the couch, and playing with squeaky toys.
  • Crate comfort: Her crate is her safe haven. She prefers it open, using it to relax or sleep when she’s alone.
  • Nighttime routine: Gabi loves to snooze near your feet or cuddle in bed.

Training and Behavior

  • Potty-trained: Yes!
  • Leash skills: She’s learning and showing willingness to improve.
  • Food motivated: Absolutely, which makes training easier.
  • Car rides: A natural traveler—she loves them!

Gabi’s Ideal Home

  • Only dog: Recommended, as she thrives as the center of attention.
  • Adults or older children: A quiet home with minimal hustle and bustle suits her best due to her fear and anxiety.
  • Patience required: Gabi’s adopter should be prepared to help her build confidence and navigate her timid nature.

Health and Adoption Details

Gabi is spayed, up-to-date on all vaccinations, dewormed, and microchipped. With an average lifespan of 15 years, her adopter should be ready to provide her with love and care for the next 12 years.

Her adoption fee is $515, which ensures she’s fully vetted and ready for her new life. Gabi is currently being fostered in Tampa, FL.
