Gus's Story

This sweet, very handsome boy cant wait to meet you! Gus is a (young!)6-7 year old that had a rough start in life and is making up for lost time in spades. <br/>Gus enjoys hanging out outside, squeaky toys or his "babies" as we like to call them, and his very favorite thing-lounging on the couch with his people! He is a big lover and prefers to be close by his people at all times. <br/>Gus might be a larger dog, but don't tell him that as he has no idea! He has all the grace of a freshly born fawn, and the coordination of one as well. He can be a bit of a scaredy cat at times, and will let you know if something bothers him by crying to you. <br/>Gus is other dog friendly and his foster home has multiple other dogs of varying sizes. He has been around children of all sizes and greatly enjoys them. He does prefer the women in the house, but he is happy with both men and women.<br/>Gus was from an animal hoarding situation in Cleveland and is still getting all of his bearings but has quickly adjusted to being an indoor pet. He was missing some teeth and had others removed that were causing him issues. He is left with one of his canines and his molars but you wouldnt know it by watching him eat! Gus wants to please, is very smart and is a quick learner. Very much treat and toy motivated! He is a wonderful boy that will make a great addition to the lucky home that adopts him!<br/><br/>Gus would like to request that his home have a yard with a fence(privacy fence preferred) with room to romp and play. He would also prefer a home with at least one person home most of the day. Work from home, stay at home parent or retired would be perfect. A doggy friend would be nice but he would be just as happy as the only dog soaking up all the love attention. He is also great with kids! <br/><br/>For an application, questions, or want more information please contact his foster at 216-856-4032 or email tabithakreis@gmail.com<br/> <br/>While in our care Gus has been fully vetted, neutered, is up to date on vaccines and preventatives and is microchipped.

Our adoption process consists of an adoption application, reference and vet checks, meet and greet, and home check. An adoption contract will be signed to finalize the adoption. Certain dogs may require a trial adoption but that will be noted in the dog’s listing information.  Our adoption screening process may seem rigorous but Hunter’s Hope needs to be assured that our dogs are going to safe, responsible and loving homes. All of our dogs vaccinated(age appropriate), heart worm tested, current on monthly HW/flea/tick preventatives, spay/neutered and micro-chipped. The adoption fees vary, depending on age, breed, and other factors.
