Meet Gus
Breed: Tibetan Spaniel
Barking from: Burnside, Christchurch
What's up dog?
Gus is a young, fun loving guy who came into my life just when I needed him most. He's fierce but mighty! Channelling his inner ancestors from the towers of Tibet where they risked predation by snowleopard to warn the monks of strangers coming just like he does for us at our front door. He is the fun police to his cat sisters too.
