Gus AKA Sigfried

​It’s Foster Fail Friday and Gus has a new name! Yup, he’s decided that he really loves his foster home and they are calling him Sigfried, aka Sig… a nice German name. He was found as a stray and when he arrived in rescue he had flea dermatitis, bi-lateral eye infections, ear infections, healing bite wounds on his legs and elbow calluses (probably from laying on concrete) but he healed quickly.
His mom Ellen told us, “Yes, we are complete Foster Fails and happy for it. Sig is a delight! Thank you for all you do! Our first foster turned into a failure. We honestly had no intentions of having a dog right now but we were looking forward to helping with the foster program and getting the GSPs to their forever homes. Well, along came Sig. 

He is a true GSP. Glued to us constantly. Try and get a little yoga in or some stretching, nope, Sig is right there all up in your space. Leave the house for a grocery run, he sits by the front window waiting on your return. He gets along so well with other dogs. He will give a growl and a bark if you walk by him but once he meets you properly, friends for life! He greets everyone who comes to the door with a tail wag and a nudge of the hand for some scratches. 

Whoever had this dog before us did an amazing job. Once he learned his new name his recall when he is off-leash is spot on. He sits for snacks, drops his toy by the door before his walks and goes to his bed when told to. When he hears a child's voice his ears perk up and he looks around, so it's very obvious he was raised with children. We are so lucky to have this bundle of energy!”

And Sig is lucky to have found you! Congrats everyone!
