Story

Meet Gus!! Brachycephalic experience preferred but not required. Gus is a 5yr old, American Bulldog mix, neutered, current on vaccinations, Heartworm positive(on slow kill treatment) & kennel trained. He is doing well with house training as well. He’s got the sweets wrinkly face, soulful eyes & those signature brown ear accents that make him extra handsome. This quiet, well-mannered boy is the ultimate lowkey companion. He listens beautifully, rarely makes a peep & just wants to be close, whether he's laying right beside you or gently resting his big head in your lap for some calm affection. He's a true Velcro dog who thrives on quiet cuddles & peaceful vibes. He gets along great with other dogs & is taking to kennel time like a pro even though it's new to him. Toys aren't his jam yet (he's still opening up), but with time & trust, this laid back teddy bear is sure to shine even more in a loving home. Please consider opening your heart & home to Gus! If you are interested in meeting and/or starting the adoption process on Gus, the first step is to please click this link and complete an adoption application : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdKJuBVKkrItDqrhKd-mDCjUFjJXkwxqzAH-Y9MII4kIX4XQA/viewform?usp=sf_link *Please answer ALL questions on the application and EVERY PART of those questions *APAWS reserves the right to refuse any application for any reason
