Gizmo


Name: Gizmo
Age: 8 years
Breed: Jack Russell
Sex: Male (altered per owner, not yet confirmed)
Location: Harrisburg, PA area

Vet Info: Gizmo is neutered and heartworm negative per his owner, and we will update once this is confirmed.  He needs his rabies vaccine.  "They will not give him rabies shot till diabetes is controlled".  Gizmo weighs about 18 pounds.  He is diabetic, and receives two insulin injections daily.  

Owner Info: Gizmo is an adorable little fellow whose owner feels she is unable to meet his needs.  She writes, "It hurts me so much to do this but he needs a home where someone can help manage his sugars and give him the love as we did."  She's contacted many rescues in her area, but has been told they would put him down.  She is hoping we can help!  She has had Gizmo since he was a puppy.

Gizmo is an indoor dog with run of the house, he is housebroken and leash trained.  He knows how to Sit and Stay.  Gizmo is a very friendly little boy and is good with people of all ages, and male and female dogs!  He lives with three other dogs now.  Gizmo is not possessive of toys, treats, or food, and has never bitten or snapped.  

Gizmo's owner gave us more details about his eyes, and writes, "We aren't 100% sure if he is fully blind but his eyes are whiteish and he has been running in to things even though he should know where the back door and such are."  He has not seen an ophthalmologist.  

His owner wants us to know what a very special little boy he is!  "I love my little guy as he was my own child. He's the sweetest little guy ever he loves our children and snuggles belly rubs and sleeping lol... I just want him to be somewhere where he can get his sugars under control... I just want him to be happy."
