Bye Bye Gus Gus

So Chris and I have decided to give Gus to my parents. Hopefully not forever. He has just been too much for our family lately and this is the best decision. Chris and I are VERY grateful that they have decided to take him because if not, I'm not sure where he would go! Am I sad?? Kind of....I mean I have had him since he was 4 weeks old. I found him in a ditch.....about to cross the road and I rescued him.

Gus' problems recently:

• Jumping on couch we we aren't home (this has been a problem for quite some time)
• Getting in the trash
• Getting food off of the counter
• Getting WC's stuffed animals from her room (thankfully not tearing them up)
• Escaping from the backyard and running away
• Barking at nothing and waking up WC
• Pooping in the house
• And the most important, GROWLING AT WC. Which is NOT acceptable!
  

I'm sure there are more, but he has worn me out I have lost track of what he's gotten in to.

We are worried about Rosie and if she'll get lonely. She has grown up with Gus for the past 3 1/2 years! She loves to play with him. My plan is to take her running with me. We can do more as a family with her because she is so good in public. For example, last fall when we get camping, we had to leave early because of Gus. Then the next time we went camping, we just boarded Gus.

I am so glad my parents are willing to take him. At their house, he has a little more leeway. He can jump on their furniture and is not bothered by a baby. There is also a great backyard to go snooping and hunting in.

So life with one dog will be different. Hopefully for the better!!!!
