And Now For Gemini.....


Gemini joined Diesel on the road South just for the trip, and as you can see she made quite an impression!


Gemini is a small black and white Staffie female, about 2 years old.  She shares her kennel with a small male Staffie, Nanuk and has German Shepherd playmates.
She recently had a homestay weekend and was an absolute star. On jumping down from the car, she immediately joined the afternoon walk gang of 7 large dogs and greeted them all happily and confidently. She made friends with them all during the walk but particularly liked Oscar the Rottie as he had a very large stick that she hung onto the other end of!
In the house, she made herself instantly at home, investigating the toy basket and choosing her favourites. Every person she met got a huge cuddle and kiss and she spent a happy hour alternating between toys, dogs and people. She settled down well after her food and was clean and quiet all night. 
The next morning, she bounced up, used the bathroom (garden) ate her breakfast and then sorted out the toys again and prepared for fun. When none of the others wanted to play, she made up her own little game and was perfectly content. It was easy to see that she remembered very well what you do in a home and she would have just happily slotted in and called this her own.
It was quite sad to let her go back; she`s a lovely, happy, lively spirit to have around – so affectionate and friendly to everyone.  She`d love an active home with another dog (ideally, with her kennel-mate Nanuk) but a large dog would suit her fine as she definitely thinks she`s up to it!  Like all Staffies, she loves her walks and games and would be a super family pet.
Can  somebody offer this great little girl a forever home? foreverfoster@shak.org.uk
