Those dimples.  They speak for themselves.  I see sweetness in them.  But also boyish mischievousness.  I see Gus’s spunk in them, as well as his shyness.  This boy has it all (minus a few fingers) – charm, resilience, sass, and sweetness – all rolled into one perfect boy.

Gus turns 9 in exactly one month.  He was abandoned at 13 days old, and has spent his  last 3,244 days as an orphan.  He has waited far too long.

Gus and his good buddy Bentley, hard at work at school.


Gus is available for adoption through Madison Adoption Associates.  He is missing a few fingers on his left hand.  There is a $3,000 grant available for the family who adopts Gus.  Bentley is also available for adoption.  Email sarah@madisonadoption.org for more information.
