Gus's Story

Meet Gus (though he doesn't yet know his name),<br/>A 9 month old snuggle bug weighing about 35 pounds. He's had a rough start to life as he was found as a puppy in an abandoned home with no food or water for about 2 weeks. He was in foster care and then got out and was hit by a car and ended up at a shelter. He is now with me and just had surgery for his broken hip on December 2nd. He also has a fractured pelvis, which there is nothing to do for that except give it time to heal. He gets around great, loves playing with the dogs (I do try to limit it as he recovers), and has even learned how to use the doggy door. He is currently in a house with 3 bigger dogs and a chihuahua and loves playing with them. He gets along with adults and kids of all ages. I'm not sure if he is potty trained because he uses a doggy door so would ere on the side of no. He has not been around cats, but I would think he would be ok as he is good with my Chihuahua.<br/>The perfect home for him would be someone that is active but home a lot as he loves hanging out with his family and snuggling on their lap. He also loves playing with dogs and finds comfort being with another dog so another dog is important. And finally, someone who has patience and is committed to working with him as he could use a little more socialization and possibly work on his pottying if no doggy door is in the house, given his past.<br/>All pets are spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and on a flea/tick preventative. Cats are tested for FIV/FeLV and dogs are tested for heartworms. Adoption fee is $150 for cats and $200 for dogs.<br/>To meet this pet, please fill out a dog application or cat application. Not able to adopt? Inquire about fostering or sponsoring this pet. For more information visit www.allpawsrescue.info.
