Here's what the humans have to say about me:
There has never been a dog sweeter than 10 - 12 year old Gussie. Gussie's owners threw him away, abandoning him in a high kill southern shelter - - - and walking away. Gussie has some medical issues that we are still investigating: failure to gain weight, thirst, and some digestive issues. We are working diligently with our veterinarians to find the cause - - - and solution - - - - and Gussie is sooooo worth the effort. Gussie is not ready to leave us yet - - - but if you would like to be on his list of potential homes when he is ready, please submit your application, which you can find on our website (www.almostheaven-golden-retriever-rescue.org) In the meantime, donations to help with Gussie's care would be very appreciated by both Gussie, and all of us entrusted with his care. Paypal buttons, and address information can also be found on our website.
