About Gus

Gus is a friendly Beagle mix looking for a stable home. After a challenging journey, including multiple adoptions and returns, he's ready to settle down for good. Rescued from a tough start as a stray, Gus has shown resilience. He’s about 10 years old and weighs 41 lbs. An active and intelligent dog, Gus loves to explore with his keen nose, typical of his hound nature. He knows basic commands and tends to jump a fence if left alone, but he's well-behaved when with other dogs—so a meet and greet is required if you have a canine friend. This heartworm-negative boy is housetrained and would do well in a home with children as well. For potential adopters, he comes with neutering, vaccinations, and a microchip included in the adoption donation of $100. Don't miss out on giving Gus the loving home he's been waiting for.
