Description

Gus is ready to find his fur-ever home! This sweet boy can be a handful and needs someone dedicated to ongoing obedience and positive training. His ideal adopter will not only commit to training but also welcome Gus into their active, athletic lifestyle. Love hiking or running? Gus is your guy! He’s been working with GRIN’s trainer, who calls him a super fun dog—very smart but with a short attention span. He’s a happy pup who wiggles his whole body when he’s with you. Though he has dog friends and plays well, he sets clear boundaries and doesn’t enjoy it when other dogs get in his face. Gus would thrive as the only dog in a home, with canine friends who respect his space. While his behavior around cats is unknown, it’s safe to say he’d be eager to give chase. He enjoys walks and does great walking with a harness. Gus is not for the faint of heart but for the fun-loving people who can keep up! Ready to meet your new best friend?
