Save A Life

 

 

Gabriel

Hi Everyone,

 

My name is Gabriel and I was born at the Humane Society of Camden County on December 11th 2008.  I was one of four and the runt of the litter.  According to my adopted Mom, I had quite a rough start.  She was there to care for me and although some days were a blur, I do remember how she would put me in the pocket of her smock so she could keep me warm and cozy.  My birth Mother found a home once I was weened.  I was very happy for her and told her not to worry.  I was in good hands.  I already knew that I would adopt that wonderful lady caring for me.

Riding in Pocket

 

Then, so I’ve been told, I ended up with the worst thing that could happen to a puppy.  The big “P” word; Parvo.  The vet thought it was from my first set of shots as I had a weak immune system.  I guess I spent the next 2 weeks living at the vet’s office and it looked iffy at times but I was determined.  I had already committed to adopting my new Mother and nothing was going to stop me. 

Parvo Treatment

 

I’m now 8 months old and full of energy. I need to make up for all that time I laid around being sick.  I was so happy to know that my new Mom came with a Dad and 6 other dogs.  Four Chihuahuas,  Tiny 9 yrs., Lady 8 yrs., Minnie 6 yrs., and Tinkerbell 5yrs; my very good friend Sophia a 10 month Hound mix , my beloved girlfriend Pennie a 5 month Dachshund mix and a 10 yrs old cat named Pumpkin.  One thing I learned from day 1 of my life is how great it feels to be loved so in turn, I feel obligated to share love with everyone I meet.  Besides passing out love, my favorite activities are cuddling, playing with my dog friends, sleeping in a dog pile on the sofa and riding in the car on my Mom’s lap.

Gabriel and Friends Dozing Together

 

I get to go back to the shelter where I was born at times and I get so excited to see all the people who work there and help care for me.  At night I sleep in the big bed along with everyone else. We really are a very close knit family.  I know that I’m spoiled and also a very, very lucky little fellow.  I hope all the dogs at the shelter find homes like mine.  Hopefully you will stop by there and let some wonderful dog adopt you and your family.
