About Gibbs:
I was found living on a porch in a wire crate in the cold weather. The rescue folks noticed I was crying with my arms around my brother to keep warm. Not surprisingly, we are bonded and must be adopted together. We are safe and warm waiting for our forever home! Due to my small size, I can't live in a home where there are young children present.
