Gus Border Collie Mix Minneapolis, MN

At 4 years and 9 months old, Gus is ready to find his forever home with a loving owner who can appreciate his unique qualities.

Gus is a stunning medium-sized dog, weighing in at a healthy 55 pounds. His mid-length coat, adorned with white fur and striking black spots and dots, is as eye-catching as his playful personality. With his good looks and friendly demeanor, Gus is sure to turn heads wherever he goes.

One of Gus's most endearing traits is his impeccable manners. He is fully house-trained and can hold it for an impressive 12 hours if necessary. Thanks to his crate training, he knows the 'kennel' command and is comfortable spending time in his crate when needed. Gus's previous owner describes him as the "perfect dog" when it comes to house training and obedience.

While Gus thrives in the company of humans, he prefers to be the only pet in the household. He has a few "quirks" when it comes to sharing space with other animals, particularly dogs and cats. However, his interactions with people, especially children over the age of 5, are nothing short of delightful. Gus loves nothing more than showering his favorite humans with affectionate licks and cuddles.

Despite his preference for a one-dog household, Gus is a social butterfly when out and about. He enjoys trips to the dog park, daycare, and even boarding facilities, where he has earned rave reviews for his friendly demeanor. Gus is the epitome of a well-behaved and sociable canine companion.

In addition to his charming personality, Gus has a few funny habits that are sure to bring a smile to your face. From his cautious inspections of storm sewers to his adorable habit of falling asleep while "sucking" on soft toys, Gus is full of surprises.

If you're considering adding Gus to your family, rest assured that he comes with a clean bill of health and has already been spayed. Whether you're looking for a cuddle buddy for lazy days on the couch or an adventurous hiking companion, Gus is ready to be your loyal sidekick.
