Gus is a fun-loving 4-year-old male Basset Hound who enjoys zoomies, playing with cats and dogs, and spending time with his people. With the right family and continued socialization, this loving, occasionally stubborn boy can thrive.

Ideal Home

Gus would do best with an easygoing female dog who matches his medium energy. His ideal home would be with a single woman or a couple willing to help him become more comfortable around men. He currently lives successfully with a cat and two canine sisters.

Training & Support

• Gus is house-trained.
• His resource guarding has improved by about 95%, but he should continue to be fed separately and left alone while eating. Bowls should be picked up promptly after meals.
• He may growl at men, including male staff in unfamiliar settings, and will need continued patient socialization.
• He does well on walks with other people and dogs, and has done well boarding and attending doggy daycare after initially adjusting.
• He may bark at traffic and cows.

Application Details

• Applications start by contacting the provider through Wags.
• Gus is neutered.
