Meet Maude! 🐾
She is an absolutely adorable 1-year-old female Saint Bernard mix weighing 67 pounds, and she is truly a gentle sweetheart with a loving personality who enjoys being around her people, soaking up attention, pets, and affection. Despite her large size, she has a soft, affectionate nature and would make a wonderful, loyal companion for an adult home ready to give her a forever place filled with patience, love, cuddles, and care.

Come meet Maude and see just how sweet she is for yourself—she’s ready to find her paw-fect home and can’t wait to meet you! 💜

A NEW shelter dog has been added to The DeCicco Project team!

Chandler is the lucky shelter dog, and his adoption fee is now fully sponsored by The DeCicco Project! Chandler is as perfect as a pet can be—he checks all the boxes! This 8-year-old Catahoula mix has a loving personality and plenty of love to give. Learn more about Chandler here:

⭐️ Earlier this month, Enzo DeCicco (who started DeCicco’s Project alongside his mom, DeAnne) stopped by with birthday donations for the GCHS shelter pets. Instead of gifts, Enzo chooses to give back—and he’s been collecting donations for the shelter for the last several years. He continues to be such an incredible supporter of GCHS!

🚨 PUPPY PAD PLEA 🚨

Our tiniest residents need your help — we’re running low on puppy pads!

Foster homes are currently caring for young puppies who rely on them daily. With so many little ones in care, our supply is being used up quickly and we’re running low.

Donating puppy pads may seem simple, but it makes a huge difference. It helps our fosters stay stocked, keeps puppies healthy and clean, and allows us to continue saying “yes” to puppies who need us most.

If you’re able to help, you can send pads directly through our wish lists or drop them off at the shelter. Every single pack truly counts. 💛
