Original: Gus is quite a handsome boy with tons of freckles! He simply adores anyone who will pay attention to him. He gets along great with my dogs including my dominant female. He is overly interested in my cats (barking and chasing) but has never growled or raised fur. He would probably do best in a home without cats as he is very eager to take chase. He is crate trained (and will go into his crate on command), rides well in the car and knows sit, stay, down and come. He doesn’t jump up on people and I have not seen him counter surf or go for the trash. He is doing much better walking on a leash but will still pull if he sees something of interest. He was very cooperative when I groomed him although he became fidgety when I trimmed his feet. He marked in the kitchen upon his arrival but a stern, loud no seemed to be the fix to that: it has not happened since. Although he has a few years on him he loves to run and play. He has even started to play with some toys. He loves to chase a ball and chase my dog running to get a ball or toy. Gus has been great with older kids and would love to have a boy to call his own.
Do you have the time for this sweet guy?
Update: Gus finally found a family to love him!
