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

🐶Meet Gus (Aka GusGus🐶)

Gus is an 8-9 week old mixed breed 17 lb chunk of love and loyalty. When it comes to breeds, he is a mix of Mountain Cur, and whatever else makes up the most loving puppy ever. He is a super sweet and playful pup, looking for someone to match his playful personality. He loves all his puppy siblings, and all of his human foster siblings as well.

He is the goodest of good boys when it comes to using his training pads and is 99% accurate, but is not yet housebroken (he's still a baby after all). Gus adores kids of all sizes and has been in a foster home with kids 4 and up. He loves everyone equally, but he knows who carries the treats and he knows who is always down for a game of fetch. He is one smart boy. Gus knows his sit command, and with time and patience, there is no doubt he will expand his list of tricks.

When it comes to eating, this not so little nugget has quite the healthy appetite. He is also very routine as far as puppies are concerned, and likes to use the potty right after a meal, no doubt to make room for his training treats that come after meals in his foster home. Gus is also a puppy poster child when it comes to sleeping in his pen for the night. He does get a bit curious, but as long as he's snuggled with a stuffy, he goes to sleep.

Being the playful little guy that he is, sweet Gus will do best in a home where there will be no shortage of playtime. Ideally, he would also have a fenced in yard because he loves to run free. Gus is ready to be your best friend furever, do you think he could be yours?
