Doofus aka Gus, Gussy, Gus Gus is a handsome big boy that we believe is a Pitbull and St. Bernard mix. He was adopted 3 years ago and is now being returned due to not adjusting to the newer dogs' energy his family brought home. Temporary dogs from fostering and dog sitting can be stressful for some dogs. Doofus became jealous and unsettled. He needs a home that is stable and does not have a lot of dogs coming in and out.

Doofus was evaluated by our trainer and she has nothing but good things to say about how well behaved this boy is. He adores all humans and older children. He loves to give kisses and has accidently knocked over a child or two due to his large size. He just doesn't realize how big he is and the amount of love he's giving! 

Right now, Doofus will need to be adopted to an only dog home or a home that is willing to work with our postive reinforcement trainer to integrate everyone. Doofus has been known to chase cats, so a no cat home as well. 

This big boy is a goofball and really loves to play ball, go for short walks and lounge on the couch. He's able to entertain himself and is extremely lovable. Don't let his name fool you, Doofus is extremely smart and knows sit, stay, place, leave it, shake, and spin.

If you're willing to give Doofus a chance at forever, please apply at allieshaven.org. Any adoption will go through our thorough process to make sure the fit is perfect.
