Gilbert

Nov 3, 2013

We adopted Gilbert from Villalobos rescue center they have a show on animal planet. He was with them for 7 years he was rescued from a fighting ring in California by the rescue. We had applied to other places for a pet but because we are truck drivers they wouldn’t adopt to us. Thank god Villalobos thought outside of the box and let us adopt Gilbert he loves riding. We are so glad his forever home is with us.
