GusGus Labrador Retriever Mix Smithfield, NC

This is Gusgus! He’s a handsome 85lbs lovable goober who just wants to be with you all the time. He’s really smart and catches on quickly! He is house trained, crate trained, current on vaccines, I'm not sure if he is good with cats, and he plays well with other dogs. He likes to be vocal and sometimes that can be intimidating. I would suggest older children for this day because he jumps and is a little mouthy. He understands sit, down, and come. He’s extremely well behaved on walks and loves to run. He need to lose some weight but loves to exercise so preferably a house that loves that too! Rarely does he pull but when he does, he’s responsive to the pinch collar. He’s never had an accident and doesn’t jump on furniture. Currently he has an ear infection (poor guy!) and some food allergies. So he needs to be on a special diet or he itches a lot. He gets excited when new people or dogs comes to the house but is submissive and is responsive to a spray bottle when you tell him “down”. Overall an amazing guy that loves to go on car rides and just be one with the family.
