Gus is an absolute sweetheart. He loves to do activities with his people the most. He loves playtime with other dogs and meeting new people. He is a hypoallergenic doodle, perfect for people with allergies or who dislike cleaning up dog hair.

Gus was placed as an elite family companion for the past 2 years. The family wanted a companion for the first dog, Maggie, whom they received from our program a few years prior. However, as Gus got older he enjoyed a rough-house type of play (which plenty of dogs enjoy), but Maggie grew unhappy with it. We took Gus back for training, re-teaching polite play, and going further with his obedience training. To no fault of his own, it was decided that for Maggie to live her happiest life, Gus would be placed in another home.

Do not let this story deter you! Gus is a complete sweetheart, great in the home and with other dogs, and a potential service dog. Matchmaking is a tricky business, and even with a high rate of success, sometimes dogs and people change. We have a strict return policy so that none of our dogs are put back into rescue situations.
