My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gus, male puppy, 13 pounds, Richmond VA *Courtesy Listing*

Gus is being fostered in the Richmond, VA area. If you are interested in Gus, please go to www.momsva.org and complete an application.

Introducing Gus, an adorable and spirited Beagle puppy currently looking for
his forever home. Below are some details about Gus that we hope will capture your heart!
Just remember, as cute as he is, Beagles are not for every family. Please do your research!

Personality:
Gus is a sweet and lively puppy, an independent thinker with a beautiful tri-colored coat. He is loud and vocal, just like a typical Beagle, and loves to explore the world with his nose always to the ground. His curious nature and medium to high energy levels keep him constantly active and ready for new adventures.

Training:
- Gus is super smart and has already learned to sit on command.
- He is currently working on crate training and housebreaking, making great progress.
- Gus will bark at the leash to let you know he needs to go outside, showing off his communication skills.

Needs:
- Exercise: Regular exercise is essential to keep Gus happy and balanced. He enjoys running and playing, making him an excellent companion for outdoor activities.
- Living Situation: Due to his vocal nature, Gus needs a home with a secure fenced yard. An apartment wouldn't suit his adventurous spirit.
- Companionship: Gus thrives on interaction and would benefit greatly from having an adult canine sibling to guide him and keep him company.

Likes:
- Toys: Gus loves playing with toys and can often be found entertaining himself with his favorites.
- Playing with other dogs: He enjoys socializing and playing with other dogs, which helps burn off some of his boundless energy.
- Hiding bones: Gus has a charming habit of hiding bones for later, always keeping a little treasure hunt going in the yard.

Why Gus?
Gus is more than just a cute face; he is a loving, intelligent, and energetic puppy looking for a forever home that can keep up with his adventurous spirit. He will bring joy, laughter, and a lot of fun to the right family. If you're ready to welcome a vocal, lively and loving Beagle into your life, Gus might just be the perfect fit!

Adoption Requirements:
- A secure, fenced yard
- A house (not an apartment)
- Willingness to continue his training with love and patience
- Preferably another dog for companionship
- Gus has sharp puppy teeth so older kids are probably best.
