Please give a very warm Friends welcome to the utterly gorgeous Gemma 
This beautiful young girl arrived at Newport City Dogs Home on Wednesday. But she very nearly died that day
The staff received an urgent telephone call from our vets. Gemma's owner had asked them to euthanise her. She was being left crated for up to 13 hours a day, and was toiletting in her crate. Her owner felt this wasn't acceptable and wanted to have her pts
Luckily for Gemma the staff didn't hesitate, and Gemma is now loving her new lease of life!
She is a little on the portly side and has virtually no muscle mass due to lack of exercise...
But she is full of fun, and loving the fuss and attention she is getting from the staff and volunteers!
Gemma may be a little bit on the back paw regarding her basic training. She loves her walks but it seems being on a lead is a bit of a novelty to her. No matter! At just 10 months of age Gemma is still little more than a puppy, and she is bright and eager to learn new things!
Including how not to overwhelm the oldies at the home
Gemma has it all to look forward to now. We let her freestyle around the garden, and she was rolling around, doing summersaults, but despite having the freedom to do her own thing she just kept coming back for more tummy tickles and a spot of loving. Seems like it's a whole new experience for her!
