Bio:
Gus is a smart cookie who knows how to sit and will eat treats gently from an open hand. He isn't the biggest fan of other dogs, so he may do best as a spoiled only child. Come meet Gus today!
Playgroup Assessment
3/11: Growling and snarling in the catch pen so the decision to put a muzzle on was made.
This behavior continued once in the yard. He would tense up when other dogs would approach and begin snarling and digging at muzzle. We did not feel comfortable removing the muzzle. PG 2 Dog tolerant no play style
Shelter Observations
3/3: laying in bed, came forward, listens and knows how to sit.
3/11: Neutral
Gus was quiet in his kennel when I approached. I was able to enter the kennel with no problem. He took treats for my hand gently. He had a friendly demeanor.
Volunteer Observations
3/1: Neutral, Good Manners, Treat Motivated, Avoiding Eye Contant, Stiff Posture
Kinda shy not doing too much but not fearing
