Gus Finds His Way Home

HI, MY NAME IS GUS. I am a Golden Retriever. Debbie and Steve from Companion Golden Retriever Rescue rescued me when my other family could not keep me anymore. I lived with Debbie and Steve until they found me a new family that wanted to adopt me. "Gus Finds His Way Home" is the true story of my journey to find my fur-ever home. It took me thirteen hours to get to my new family. Come join me on my adventure over the mountains and through a flood. You will even get to meet my new family. The most important thing about my story is the importance of rescuing or rehoming animals that need a second chance.
