What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreGus' favourite toy any rubber ball with eirther a open middle to chew like bubble gum. Or a ball with a loud squeaker, he loves to make as much noise to get attention. Above all his go to treat is liver treats. He will do anything you ask even if he has not learned it yet for a liver treat.
Gus has many unique qualities, 1 being that he must play with at least 2 toys at a time. You can't catch Gus without a toy in his mouth and another held in his arms. He loves to run in the yard with one toy and chase after another ball at the same time. Another unique quality is that Gus needs a bedtime treat. Not just a go in the crate treat, no a bedtime cookie then, he won't make a peep till morning.
Gus is an 11-month-old purebred red Golden Retriever who perfectly captures what America loves about dogs. Goofy, endlessly energetic, and unbelievably cuddly, he proudly carries sticks twice his size, squeaks his favourite ball like it’s his job, and launches himself 6 feet in the air for epic catches. Gus doesn’t just fetch; he spreads joy, love, and reminds us that happiness is best shared with a wagging tail.
