My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Gemma has been in our family since she was about nine months old. We adopted her from a breeder who acquired her thru a surrender who was from Costa Rica. She is apprehensive of men and it takes her a few to warm up to a man. She prefers women. She will be eleven in June. She has had incontenance since she was spayed at one year but it has gotten worse in her old age. She is currently on medication to help control her irritation. She does wear a diaper constantly only to prevent her from leaking on floors and furniture. She is a very sweet girl with a sad melancholy demeanor. She loves being around other dogs, and weirdly she likes the little guys. She does currently live with a frenchie and has been around other bulldogs her whole life. She has a few lumps on her that vet said are noncancerous which is common. She is very protective of her house, so she will let you know who is on your property. She is used to running in a yard and leash walking can be a challenge.
