These Washington-based canines are up for adoption and in need of a good home

Gus is an adorable male Basset hound and beagle mix currently residing at K-9 Lifesavers.

Gus will get along great with your other dogs and will do best in a home without small children. He is neutered, vaccinated and house-trained.

From Gus' current caretaker:

Gus is a very good boy who is doing excellent in his foster. He is on the shy side and thrives on predictability and routine and doesn't like changes. For that reason, he would not thrive in a home that has lots of visitors or lots of high-energy chaos.
