Furry Friends: Gidget the Great can’t wait to meet you

REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- This week, we're introducing you to Gidget, who could easily be mistaken for a bucking bronco the way he bounds around!

He's a beautiful Bull Mastiff Terrier and Staffordshire mix who is well known at Redmond's BrightSide Animal Center.

"He's been here for almost three years. He's our longest-residing resident," said Hannah Loftis, the shelter manager at BrightSide.

"He is now 7 years old, but don't let that fool you. He will just bound around out in the play yard. He will play tug of war," Loftis said. "Gidget loves kids! Every time we have kiddos come in, we have our reading buddies that come in, he gets so happy to see them!"

If you would like to meet Gidget, please contact BrightSide Animal Center. It's open Tuesday-Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
