Male Dog, Pit Bull Terrier
Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed
Description:
Gus was abandoned and found on the street in 2023. He is now about 2 years old now, 65lbs, goofy, smart, and amazing with other dogs. He needs a home with a playful pup to help burn off his energy, and someone who will stick to his training structure. Gus has worked so hard on managing reactivity (to skateboards, unfamiliar people, kids, balls) and has made so much progress with @clarityk9 where he just completed a board and train program. He walks well with training tools and absolutely thrives with routine, structure, and exercise. Despite all his progress, despite how many times we’ve posted, responded to inquiries, and tried to make connections, Gus still doesn’t have a family.Gus needs: A confident, experienced person Another dog in the home No cats Older children are okay Someone who will continue his training and give him the structure he needsHis adoption fee is waived. A free session with @clarityk9 is included, and they’ll meet with fosters or adopters before Gus comes home. Gus has done his part. His trainer has done their part. Now all he needs is someone to believe in him and five him the chance to prove what a great dog he is.If are interested in learning more about adopting Gus, please reach out: adoptions@rescuecity.nyc Or apply to adopt Gus at rescuecity.nyc/adopt.
