Gesha’s Story

Gesha came into the SNAFU Rescue via breeder release. Her breeder wanted her to be placed in a loving pet home to be spoiled and live out her life as a cherished pet.

Gesha is a sweet, funny, friendly, affectionate, playful yet laid-back Frenchie girl who is an absolute love bug! This exuberant girl is very social with a fondness for nap time. Geisha is quick to warm up to new people (big, small, and furry) and can easily make new friends by flirting her way into their hearts and laps. She absolutely adores receiving attention, cuddling with her human, and receiving face and neck rubs.

Gesha adores ALL toys, especially those that squeak as she will take it upon herself to gallop around the house squeaking away! After a good romp around the house shaking her plush toy, you can find Gesha searching for her beloved buffalo horn or bully stick and settling in for a quiet chew session. After she tires of her bone, she will take a long snooze in her comfy bed when the household is quiet and settled. Make one movement…Gesha is quick to jump up and follow around her favorite humans. She definitely does not want to miss out on anything; a major case of FOMO. She MUST be everywhere with her humans.

Gesha is a typical adorable young girl…every day is play, nap, play, nap; wash-rinse-repeat! She worships all known humans, pretty much anyone person or pup she can convince to provide her with enjoyment, attention, treats, and snuggles. She is well-behaved, respectful around humans and other dogs. Gesha has been known to guard her favorite treasures by letting out a little growl to those furry creatures that get on close. She is quick to correct this unwanted behavior with a FIRM NO. She will need a patient and understanding family to help guide her into proper dog behaviors, learn commands and what is expected of her in the home.

Because she is still learning manners, we feel she would do best in a home with children 6 years or older who are calm, respectful, gentle and dog savvy. In addition, we feel Gesha would thrive in a home with a well-balanced furry friend to show her the ropes of pet life as she mimics all dog behaviors. As with all of our dogs, slow introductions to other dogs and children in the household is a must and she should always be supervised to make sure both she and they are kept safe.

Gesha is still working on potty training. It is a work in progress however her foster family happily reports she is doing GREAT and she is 90% there!! She has been consistently going potty outside and her accidents are VERY few and far between. A regular and consistent schedule will help with continued potty training in her new home. As with all of our dogs, any adopter will need to be able to and willing to continue working on potty training with her. She would benefit from a single for potty (and for the weather to warm up; Gesha is NOT a fan of the COLD weather).

She is completely crate trained and sleeps quietly without any accidents in her crate when her foster family happens to be away from the home as long as she has several comfy blankets to snuggle up and nest in. She currently sleeps in a dog bed beside her foster parents bed but since Gesha loves to snuggle so much, we know she would love a human bed to share in her adoptive home.

Medically, Gesha is in great health! She has been spayed, updated on vaccinations/deworming, heartworm tested, nares widened, a dental with extractions, microchipped and has been given a clean bill of health by our veterinarian! Gesha had some eyelashes that were removed that were rubbing and irritating her eye. It is possible that they could grow back so her eye must be monitored for any future irritation. 

Gesha would do well in almost any type of home but since she is still perfecting potty training, still mastering her leash/stairs skills, has an affinity to run and play so a house with a fenced yard will be preferred for her. Gesha is truly a pack animal and needs the love and attention from a family with another furry member to play with! A bonus for her would be if she was welcomed into a family with several members to offer her lots of cuddles and pets! The more people who offer her love and lots of attention the happier Gesha is!

She would love to go to work with her new family if they wanted to take her to the office knowing she would be the office greeting committee and flirt her way into the hearts of all the employees. If her people are not able to take her to work with them, no problem! She is completely happy sleeping the day away in her crate as long as she has a furry brother or sister to keep her company AND if her new family can arrange a potty break for her midday throughout the day! 

Gesha is a very intelligent, affectionate (loves to offer kisses) with very playful and active moments. She is a HUGE snuggle bug that prefers warm spots in front of the fireplace and being fed an unlimited amount of healthy snacks!  Gesha is still learning manners but with proper guidance she will quickly adapt to a structured environment. If you are looking for an addition to your family that needs and wants your family’s attention, love and snuggles then Gesha just might be for you and your family!
