Gussie - Terrier and Lhasa Apso Dog Available for Adoption in Homestead, Florida

The thing that Gussie loves the most is to run and play and then come running to her person and then go run and play again!

Gussie and her litter mates were born by mistake and surrendered to our rescue. Mom Dog is a short coat medium sized terrier type and Dad dog is a wire hair fluffy Bengi type dog.

Beautiful Gussie has a gorgeous dark gray wiry coat and just the best personality. She is Gentle. She is affectionate. She is independent. She loves to play with her litter mates. She is curious and she is very sweet natured.

Did I mention her blue eyes? And the curl of her tail? And the little white patch under her chin? Voted most beautifully unique by her class!

She is first to pick up a stick and run back and forth teasing her littermates! Gussie loves breakfast and cookie time!

We are looking for a lifetime commitment for her with someone that will love and adore her for as long as she lives She will give back all the love in the world unconditionally
