My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Angus aka Gus looks like a Hound / Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. This handsome big boy is around 9-years-young and is a big baby at 90lbs. Gus was found roaming the streets of Fort Lauderdale about a year ago, when one of our dedicated volunteers found him and brought him to the rescue. For the last year, Gus has been collecting stuffed animals and melting hearts with his sweet loving ways.

Angus is crate and potty trained. He is very strong, but with the proper guidance, he walks well on a leash. This gentle giant loves his stuffed toy. You'll often find him nursing on his stuffed toys or his bed as he lays by your feet. Gus would thrive in a home with a fenced yard and a strong pack leader. He has done well meeting other dogs with a slow introduction. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

To meet Angus, please fill out an adoption application at www.abandonedpetrescue.org. Angus is ready to bring his big smile and his toys to your home!

More about this shelter

Abandoned Pet Rescue (APR) is one of the largest no-kill animal shelters in South Florida with the mission of rescuing and sheltering abandoned and abused cats and dogs with the goal of finding them new homes. APR's adoption center has about 150 cats and 30 dogs, all of which receive nutritious meals, veterinary care, enrichment and love.

APR, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was founded in 1996 by a group of volunteers who were trapping, spaying and neutering feral cats and quickly realized the greater need to help abandoned pets and advocate for a no-kill community. APR is funded solely by generous donors and grants.
