THE ADOPTION CENTER / INTAKE CENTER IS NOT A SHELTER OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.  IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN MEETING A PET YOU SEE ONLINE PLEASE FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION TO GET THE PROCESS STARTED.  
LAST HOPE RESCUE IS A FOSTER BASED RESCUE.   OUR ADOPTABLE PETS ARE IN LOVING FOSTER HOMES. 

We aren't sure if Gerber is a chihuahua, dachshund, or min pin mix, but one thing is for sure this little guy is going to make someone a terrific companion! He has a beautiful brindle coat and delicate features, although don't be fooled - Gerber is an active and playful dog! His foster family jokes that he could easily join the circus as he jumps into the air with ease, and if you're lucky he'll teach you to catch him in your arms (or at the very least he'll never struggle to jump into your chair!)

 

Gerber will bond to his new person quickly, he'll easily fit into a home with other dogs and he doesn't seem to mind cats either! Gerber earned his name when he was brought into animal control and the only thing he would readily eat was baby food.  He's come a long way from his days of being a picky eater, he's now happily eating dog food and has had a recent dental procedure to ensure his mouth was healthy and happy.

 

If you are looking for a dog that is equal parts lap dog and playful companion, consider Gerber! He'll love playing in your yard with you and can easily run along with bigger dogs that enjoy a playful companion.

 

Gerber's adoption fee is $250and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccines and heartworm testing, a recent dental and current monthly preventatives. Gerber is seeking an indoor only home, if you would like to meet him please submit an adoption application through our website for consideration, Adopthope.org.  Last Hope requires that adopters have a history of having kept their pets altered, kept current on annual vaccines and vet care and as indoor pets only. Our adoption process includes a vet history check and a home visit.
