About Gatsby

Gatsby Needs a Foster or Adopter by 5/29/26 to Secure His Ride to Wisconsin Gatsby is currently with a partner rescue in Georgia and is looking for a foster or adopter to reserve his spot on the transport to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on 5/29/26. He'll need a committed home in place to make the trip north, and we're hoping someone is ready to give him that chance. Meet Gatsby Gatsby is a 3-month-old Lab/Boxer mix who is ready to leave his stray days behind. He was found with his sister, Gracie, wandering in a remote area of Georgia, and eventually was brought to the local shelter. Gatsby is a happy, playful puppy who loves attention and is always up for an adventure. He has a sweet nature and enjoys being around people, making him a great companion in the making. Like any young pup, he's full of curiosity and still figuring out the world around him. He's just getting started with training and will benefit from a home that can guide him through the basics like potty training, crate time, and leash walking. Gatsby is eager, food-motivated, and at the perfect age to learn and grow into a well-rounded dog.
