and always ready to see what’s happening, allow us to introduce you to Gizmo!
Gizmo is a 3-month-old terrier mix weighing approximately 10 pounds, and this handsome little guy is basically a walking puppy smile.
He has that classic terrier personality—curious, playful, silly, and convinced that absolutely everything deserves further investigation. A toy? Must inspect it. A bone? Definitely needs chewing. Something moving across the room? Obviously requires immediate attention.
Gizmo loves to play and enjoys romping around with his canine friends, but he also has a wonderful ability to settle in once the fun is over. When he's ready to recharge, he is happy to hang out with his people and soak up some love.
He is currently fostered with SIX other dogs and does wonderfully with his furry roommates. He's a social little guy who enjoys having canine friends around and would love a family ready to keep him engaged with play, toys, enrichment, and plenty of affection.
A few things about this handsome little dude:
3 months old and approximately 10 pounds
Fostered with SIX dogs and does great with his canine friends
Playful, goofy, and curious
Loves toys, bones, and puppy shenanigans
Sweet and affectionate with his people
Has met cats and did well—he's young enough to learn how to live happily with a kitty
Can get a little mouthy when excited and playing, but it's typical puppy behavior and never aggressive
Still learning his leash skills
Sleeps in a pen with an attached crate
May give a little puppy protest when first put in his crate or pen, especially if he knows his people are nearby, but settles once he's comfortable
House and crate training are coming along, but he's still a puppy and accidents can happen
Neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines and preventatives
Gizmo is the kind of puppy who will happily join you for some fun, keep you entertained with his goofy antics, and then settle down beside you when he's ready for a break.
He's got the adorable terrier charm, a sweet personality, and plenty of puppy years ahead of him to become the amazing dog he's meant to be.
If you're ready for puppy kisses, silly antics, toys scattered around the house, and a little four-legged shadow following you around...
Gizmo is ready to meet you!
Fostered in York, PA

We are PA Caring for K-9's, an all-breed dog rescue that is solely run by volunteers. Most of our dogs are rescued from high kill shelters in the South. If the dog is posted, they are still available! Once arriving, these dogs enter foster homes, as we do not have a shelter. We cannot adopt out dogs to a home with dogs that are not fixed or up to date on shots. If interested in adopting, please submit an application online at .pack9rescue. Our adoption fee for altered dogs is $350 and goes directly to saving the lives of more dogs. Our adoption fee for unaltered puppies will be $400 which includes a refundable $50 deposit upon receipt of spay/neuter certificate. Learn more about adopting from us or volunteering for us at .pack9rescue or check us out on Facebook for more information and a complete list of dogs available for adoption. .facebook/PaCaringForK9s/
