39;s a typical hound who likes to sniff, so a fenced yard is required. This good boy really enjoys attention and affection. Gus gets along wonderfully with other dogs and rides beautifully in the car. Gus is neutered, up to date on vaccines and recently completed treatment for heartworm. Gus' adoption fee is $450. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. If you are interested in learning more about me, and possibly making me part of your family, please go to wag-on-inn.
