About Gus

Adoption Fee: $200
Mastiff / Rottweiler
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Gus is a 4.5 year old mastiff/rotweiler mix. He a wonderful companion animal and has given our family loyalty, cuddles, and goofiness. He is a low-energy dog who loves to snooze, but also enjoys moderate walks and hikes. Gus needs a new home because he can aggressively resource guard random objects (e.g. a child's toy or a kleenex). We cannot keep him in our house with three very small children who may be inclined to follow him if he takes a forbidden toy. Gus would be great in an adult-only home or a family with older children who can understand and manage this behavior. Gus is great with kids, adults, and other dogs. He is trained on the basics and walks well on a leash. He is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations. It is with an extremely heavy heart that we have to find a new home for this loving dog. But he will be a fantastic addition to any home without small children who wants a loving companion and can manage his occasional resource guarding.
