My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gigi – The Queen of the Comeback, Deaf but Definitely Not Dull Once upon a snowstorm, Gigi was found alone in an impounded car like the start of a gritty dog drama. Ten years old, matted like a shag rug, with teeth that had seen better decades—Gigi had every reason to throw in the towel. But instead, she flipped her imaginary hair, gave the world a sassy head tilt (from a minor stroke she totally bounced back from), and said, “I’m not done yet.” Now freshly groomed, teeth sparkling, and spirit revived, Gigi has officially entered her golden era. And honestly? She’s thriving. Here’s the thing: Gigi is deaf. Like, fully can’t-hear-a-thing deaf. Which means your vacuum doesn’t scare her, thunder is no big deal, and she’ll never judge your singing—because she can’t hear it. But don’t be fooled—she will bark at you. A lot. Not because she’s mad, but because she’s convinced that one day, through sheer force of personality, she’ll finally hear you respond. It’s her version of manifesting. So yeah… no shared walls please. Her communication style is “enthusiastic shouting into the void.” Gigi has also never been on a leash. Not once. The concept is entirely foreign to her. Put a leash on and she’ll probably just stand there staring at you like, “What is this nonsense?” For that reason, a fully secured fenced-in yard is a must—leash life is not her vibe. And kids? Hard pass. Gigi is a refined gal who prefers adult company. Children with all their flailing limbs and unpredictable energy are a little too much for her. She’s retired from that level of chaos. She’s working on potty training, enjoys following her humans around like a slightly confused cloud, and wouldn’t mind a mellow dog companion to keep her company when her people are out doing boring human things like "earning money for treats." Gigi may be ten, but her sass is eternal. She’s swapped zoomies for naps, parties for peace and quiet, and is looking for a soft couch and a soft heart to match. If you’re into redemption stories, want a nonjudgmental (and non-hearing) roommate, and believe every good girl deserves a fabulous retirement, Gigi is ready. Bonus: she’ll never complain about your snoring. She doesn’t even know it’s happening.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in adopting this lovable animal? Please go to our website www.wagsmn.org and fill out an Adoption Application.  Once the application is processed, a Wags representative will contact you, answer any questions you may have, and set up a time/location for a meet and greet!  A home visit is required prior to adoption.  Thank you for choosing to adopt! Breed and temperament determination:  Wags & Whiskers Animal Rescue attempts to determine breed and temperament using a combination of looks, information provided to us at intake, and our experience with the animal while in our Rescue.  We do not guarantee this determination.
