REAL DOGS. REAL STORIES. READY FOR HOME.

Adoption Pending!

He’s smart. He’s scruffy. He’s got opinions—and a puzzle bowl.

Gibson, a 7-year-old Blenheim Cavalier, has a side of sass and a whole lot of charm. And did we mention the cutest little cowlick that sticks straight up on his head? (We're melting here!) Surrendered by his previous owner, Gibson is now in foster care with Cavalier Rescue of Florida and making sure everyone knows when he walks through the door.

He’s also this close to happily ever after—because his adoption is already pending!

📸 Meet Gibson
We photographed Gibson on a warm Saturday morning in Riverview, and from the first wag, he had us hooked. His fluffy ears, white face, and goofy little grin made him impossible to resist. (He is soooooo sweet!)

Gibson is basically a "ruff and tumble shadow." He’ll follow you around, ask for snacks (often), and flash those soulful eyes like he’s never been fed in his life. He loves treats, learned sit and stay in record time, and sleeps in bed—just for five minutes before hopping off like the quirky gentleman he is.

“We’re not saying Gibson runs the house… but we’re also not saying he doesn’t.”

🏡 Gibson’s Ideal Forever Home

A home where someone is around most of the time
A fenced yard for his short but spunky outdoor time
A family ready to manage his medical needs and healthy diet
Bonus points if you're willing to hand out treats (but not every time he comes inside… nice try, Gibson)

📸 Portraits with Purpose

Gibson's images were captured as part of our SIT STAY LOVE initiative—an effort by The PAWtographers to give rescue dogs their moment in the spotlight (and on the walls of their forever homes).

✨ Why Adopt Gibson?

Because under that scruffy face is a loyal, clever companion who just wants to be near his people (and maybe manipulate them for cookies). He’s got heart, humor, and a whole lot of personality packed into 24 pounds.
