My personality

My story

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

Hey guys, yes I’m Gus Gus like from Cinderella and I will say like Gus Gus I am the favorite in my training program. If you want to pick me you need to know my ears are like my antenna and I can dial into any sound and smell from clear across the yard. My trainer and I have such a great relationship and he tells me that when you guys find me I will love you guys even more than I love him, I told him that’s hard to believe but its exciting if it’s true. As a Cattle Dog/Shepherd mix I have a very unique personality the biggest thing you have to know about me is how deeply I love my person, I work hard on controlling all the love I have for my people so I want you to know that I will love you so deeply and be excited every time you come home. You will never have a pup more loyal than me.

More about this rescue

Wiley's Wish Animal Rescue is a female-operated 501(c)(3) nonprofit saving dogs facing euthanasia at high-kill shelters due to California’s overcrowding crisis. Through our proprietary prison resident/rescue dog training initiative, PAWS of HOPE, we currently train and AKC/CGC certify rescue dogs, giving them valuable skills and a greater chance at successful adoption.

Since 2021, we have rescued, rehabilitated, and placed over 1,500 dogs into loving, happy forever homes. We are proud to be an all-breed, all-size, all-color, all-age, all-energy-level rescue. From two-pound Chihuahuas to one-hundred-eighty-pound Great Danes, we rescue the abandoned, discarded, abused, and forgotten—offering them a second chance at life and love.
