In November 2018, Gus was seized from a horrific cruelty case. Though he was heartworm positive and terrified of men, he was not as emaciated as the other dogs. He hunted well and therefore he was fed more. A cruel reality from unscrupulous owners.

Gus Before Rescue

​Gus found himself in the best of hands when he landed his amazing foster mom, Michele. He got heartworm treatment. With patience and love, he learned that life and people could be good. He eventually found his forever home with a wonderful person he instantly bonded with.

This week, Gus landed himself in FORBES MAGAZINE!! We can't think of a better rags to riches outcome than filthy pen to Forbes magazine!


We are so so proud of Michele and Gus!

The story “Gus: From Filthy Pen to FORBES Magazine” is truly inspiring and shows how vision, persistence, and hard work can transform even the most unlikely beginnings into global recognition. Gus’s journey proves that success is built step by step, through patience and attention to detail. It reminds readers that growth often starts in imperfect conditions but thrives with the right mindset and strategy. Much like choosing the correct sewing machine needle sizes is essential for smooth stitching and flawless results, selecting the right tools, values, and decisions at each stage plays a crucial role in shaping a powerful success story.
