Gus's Story

Meet Gus <br/><br/>Gus is a handsome 4–5-year-old Pittie/Pyrenees mix weighing about 62 lbs, and he's ready to find a calm, loving home where he can truly thrive. He was originally adopted as a puppy and has been deeply loved ever since—but with the recent arrival of a new baby, it's become clear that Gus would be happiest in a quieter environment better suited to his needs.<br/><br/>Gus is a sweet, people-oriented boy who loves companionship, snuggles, and being close to his humans. He's housebroken, leash trained, neutered, and fully up to date on veterinary care. He also loves other dogs and enjoys regular daycare playtime, making him a great candidate for a home with a friendly canine companion.<br/><br/>Because Gus can feel anxious—especially when left alone—he would do best with a family that can offer routine, patience, and lots of reassurance. He's not comfortable around babies or toddlers, so a home with older children (around 7–8+ years) or adults only would be the best fit for his success and happiness<br/><br/>Gus is truly a wonderful dog with so much love to give. With the right home, he will be an incredibly loyal, affectionate companion who just wants to be part of the family<br/><br/>If you're looking for a devoted best friend and can offer Gus the peaceful home he deserves, we'd love to hear from you.

716 Promoting Animal Welfare & Safety (716 PAWS)'s Adoption Policy
Currently we only adopt out within a 1 hour commute from the Buffalo Niagara airport. We accept any application outside of that area if the family has no other pets and is willing to come to buffalo for meet and greets with the dogs. If an applicant has other pets it is on a case by case basis weather the foster is willing to travel for the meet and greet. We will consider processing applications outside of Western New York and Rochester if the family has no other dogs in the home and is willing to come to Buffalo for the meet and greet. We do not provide transport services to out of town adopters. We do not adopt within Canada. What's Required to Adopt Required vetting for dogs: They must be spayed or neutered Be current on their rabies, distemper/parvo. Kennel cough/Bordatella is highly recommended but not required for dogs. If current animals are not vaccinated and spayed/neutered, the application will be denied unless there is a valid reason that it was medically necessary not to perform the procedure. Required vetting for Cats:? They must be spayed or neutered Be current on their rabies PLEASE NOTE: You must be 21 or older to adopt. Once your application is received we distribute to our volunteers for processing. First we will contact your vet reference if you current have pets living in the home or have had pets within the past two years. Next we will be contacting your personal references. Next is the home check. This visit is a non dog meeting where a volunteer will meet with you and the members of your household to discuss the adoption process, review the home, the yard and answer any questions you may have. Once the home visit is completed and if you are approved, you will be notified and can then express interest in a dog.
