Available for adoption – Gus

**Available for adoption – currently in Gauteng, but can relocate**

Meet five year old Gus. He is a very loving boy and needs to be with his humans as much as possible. He prefers positive reinforcement and rewards for good behaviour. Gus enjoys going to the dog park to meet up with his friends. He is very good with children of all ages. He invented counter surfing, as GSPs do, but in other aspects he is fully housetrained. He loves chasing a ball but if he does he hurts his front legs (runs very very intensely), as a result ball play should be limited. He does enjoy jogging with his human. Has a strong hunting drive so we won’t recommend cats, feathers or livestock. Gus requires owners who want a very physically loving dog, willing to let him lie on the beds and couches. If you are into cuddling, then Gus is your man.

Available for adoption – Saartjie

**Available for adoption – currently in Gauteng, but can relocate**

Let us introduce two year, eight month old Saartjie. This girl is boisterous, spontaneous and full of mischief, as any young GSP can be. Saartjie is very affectionate and friendly toward people and will make an amazing companion for a family who can provide the stimulation and exercise that she needs. She wants to be part of the family and accompany them on all sorts of adventures. She can run out the gate when given the chance, so this needs to be worked on. Loud noises and thunder does not bother her at all. Saartjie does not like cats, had no exposure to livestock and farm animals or small dogs. My observation is that we should not place her where she may not be tempted to help herself to some lamb or chicken. Saartjie should be placed in a home with a large breed male dog of similar energy levels as hers.
