My story

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

Meet Gus! Gus is a friendly and easygoing 2-year-old boy weighing around 60 pounds. He has a playful, happy personality and truly enjoys being around people. Whether it’s soaking up attention, going for a run, or engaging in a fun play session, Gus is always excited to be part of the fun. He adores adults and children alike and has shown himself to be a loving, social companion. Gus has experience around other dogs and has done well with them, making him a great candidate for a home with canine friends. While he doesn’t have any known experience with cats, he continues to show curiosity and enthusiasm for new environments.

Gus would thrive in a home that can provide him with plenty of attention, playtime, and daily enrichment. Come by and spend some time getting to know Gus—you may just find your new best friend!

To adopt from BTAA you must be present and at least 18 years of age or older.

If you find an animal you wish to adopt, we’ll review the pet’s file to ensure that you and the pet you’ve selected are a good match. This will include medical and/or behavioral considerations as well.

More about this shelter

The mission of Better Together Animal Alliance, formerly Panhandle Animal Shelter, is to create and support meaningful connections by enhancing the lives of dogs, cats, and the people in our community who love them.

Better Together Animal Alliance serves the Inland Northwest and its primary goal is to keep pets and families together. This is achieved by supporting pet owners using best practice programs and by supporting both sides of the human-animal bond in a friendly and non-judgmental way. Better Together Animal Alliance's owner support programs help pet owners take care of their pets, preventing the need to surrender them to the animal care facility. Programs include a pet food bank, a help line, Pets for Life, Home To Home, Temporary Loving Care, and Trap-Neuter-Return services for community cats. Of the animals served annually, only 1/3 ever enter the animal care facility and most are cared for in their homes or through community-based programs.

When an animal needs a safe place to stay until they find a new home, they are cared for at the animal care facility where cats live cage-free in a stimulating and spacious cat haven and dogs enjoy the benefits of being out of their kennels walking or playing several times a day.

Better Together Animal Alliance is the founder of Home To Home, an online pet rehoming tool for animal shelters. The program is used in by shelters and rescues across the United States and Canada and helps pets find new homes without ever entering an animal shelter.
