gus

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/   Gus is a 4 month old male Brussels Griffon who weighs in at 6 pounds. This pup's adoption fee is $850. If you are still interested, please read more below. At just 4 months old, Gus has already perfected the art of the RBGF: Resting Brussels Griffon Face. Don't let his adorably grumpy expression fool you—behind that frumpy little face is a happy, affectionate puppy who loves nothing more than curling up in his human's bed (or, even better, his foster's lap) for a cozy nap. But once Gus wakes up... it's game on! He burns off all that nap-fueled energy with hilarious zoomies around the house and endless games of chase with his Beagle/Lab mix foster sister. He's equal parts playful and entertaining. Gus is also a curious little explorer. He loves squeezing into and under tight spaces, often emerging with "lost treasures" everyone thought had disappeared forever. He's already learned the commands "sit" and "come"—although he sometimes likes to pretend he has other plans! If you're looking for a puppy who will keep you laughing, happily snuggle up after playtime, and fill your home with love and a little bit of mischief, Gus is ready to meet you! This pup is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and neutered. The new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.  Please note ARF does not approve applications for any puppy under 6 months of age to families that live outside of Illinois and/or beyond 100 miles of Wheaton or Glen Ellyn, IL.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting this pup fill out an online application today!  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting.  ARF is an all volunteer organization.  Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions until your application has been approved.  Thank you for your patience!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.   Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are  based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/ As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events.  Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop! July 10, 2026, 8:22 pm
