About Gus

Gus has been through a lot. Years of abuse left him with some neurological challenges, but none of it has dulled his gentle temperament. He moves at his own pace and needs a patient person ready to take walks at a slow rhythm and hand out plenty of treats. Gus gets along with other dogs and benefits from calm canine company, though introductions are needed since he likes to know who he’s sharing a space with. He’s protective of his food, so separate meals work best. Gus hasn't met any cats yet, so that remains an unknown. His favorite things are lounging, quiet time, and living out his senior years somewhere comfortable and steady. If you can offer kind patience, Gus will make a loyal, mellow companion. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
