Plenty of Pets
Gibbon is a two-year-old German shepherd-Staffordshire terrier mix who is full of energy.
Gibbon had a tough beginning and needs someone with patience who is willing to put time into helping him learn and take him on adventures.
He’s not house trained, and needs a home without small animals or young children. Obedience training is recommended.
Gibbon is ready to learn how to be a great canine family member; he just needs some help.
To see him, visit the Colchester SPCA at 408 Industrial Avenue.
