Update: 6/6/08*** Gus is housebroken and is great with kids. Gus is looking for his forever home. He is shy at first till he gets to know you. Then watch out!! He is a lover!

*************************************************************
This is Gus, he is the friendliest dog at the barn. He loved everyone. I do not know if he is housebroken or not, but he is friendly. ERU received a call about 13 eskies living in a barn that needed to be moved by May 1st, because the barn was sold. I went an evaluated the dogs. All are in excellent shape physically. However they have never been socialized, they are terrified of people. They are not aggressive at all even when cornered and captured. However, we are full and have no where to put these dogs.
These dogs are available for adoption however they are not socialized yet. They are afraid of people but are NOT aggressive at all. Once you catch them and hold them for a bit they do calm down.

They do need to be seen by a vet and spayed/neutered however when that is done they will be ready to be adopted if there are families that are willing to work with them. If you are a family that is willing to work on the socialization of these dogs. You will be getting a great dog. If you are not sure this is something you are up to but are willing to give it a try, you could always sign up to foster.

The dogs that came from there range in ages from 9 months old to the oldest dog is their mom who will be 5 in September. There are 4 that are 9 months old, 4 that are almost 2 years old. 2 that are almost 4 years old.

If you're interested in me and would like more information, please contact
justus4250@aol.com or gina@eskierescuers.org. You can also visit our website

and sign-up to fill out an adoption application and learn more about our adoption process. I'm staying in Pennsylvania until my new family comes along!

Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.
