First Christmas without you.

12/25/10

my first christmas without you here by my side. opening presents wasn't the same. it took me back to the first christmas we had together, you playing with the wrapping paper. i miss you like crazy. theres no present under the tree with your name on it. no present under the tree from you to me. i love you so much. i finally got my wall filled up with pics of you. like i told you i would do. everyday i think of you, and i miss you like crazy darling. i can't look at another dog like you without crying. or someone else having there dog name "Gus" its not the same. every 11th of the month i take ten minutes from 11:30-40 and think about how my heart was breaking when you were being put down.

please don't ever forget me. I'll always love you.

-love your sissy. :)

That is the day I shall never forget. As long as I live you'll ALWAYS be with me. I love you more than anything. All the little moments with you made my day. For the past Seven years, Eight months, and two days with you have been a gift from God.

I remember when Mom and I picked you out, on the car ride home you began to sing. We taught you how to sing the ABC's and Little Star. You and your sparkling white teeth that were all messed up. How if someone pointed at you, you would begin to growel.

You and Curley would always play with the kittens and not hurt them. You were a cat lover and thats what I loved about you. Yes, you did hurt the cats at times, but it was also Maggie and Sassys fault as well. If it wasn't for them, you would of been a good boy, but I understand. Boys need to get some attention from the girls once and a while.

Your brown eyes were full of love and joy. There wasn't a day that would go by that I didn't think of you. Even if I was upset with you.

Even tho you were blind, you never stopped from going outside with me. And chasing the cows, and playing with the cats. And how much Bud is going to miss you. The first night you were gone, Bud was in my bed looking all over for you. I think I could see the tears in his eyes. He misses you playing with him. And you licking his face after he was done drinking his milk. You have no idea how much we all miss you.

Why did you have to go so soon? You were so young, with so much life ahead of you.

I shall remember everything. The good and the bad. I just hope your watching over me, and help me with the decsions I make in life.

More to come.

Always,
sissy and furriends

Car ride.

8/30/10

Mom took me for a ride to drop off my sister at my brothers house. Yes, confusing but whatever. Mom asked me if I wanted to go for a ride and duh. Of course I said yes. I jumped in the car with Mom and my sister and we were on our way.

Sissy called and wanted mom to pick her up so i went back into the car, then sissy said that she didn't want to come home yet. So Mom was trying to get me outta the car, but it didn't work. Normally I'll jump right out of the car, but this time i didn't. Mom had to carry me into the house, and i wasn't happy.

But all day, I felt special. I was the only one to go for a ride, and it was amazing. Since I'm blind its really hard for people to let me do things with them, but they do their best.

Today was a great day. Can't wait for more car rides. :)

Hey there.

The names Gus. And I don't like writing in a book, so theirs probably only going to be a few.

I'm seven years young. Blind as a bat. But I'm loved and thats all that matters. I've seen death more than once, and I'm living my life to the fullest.

I can't stand people who stare at me, even tho I can't see them, I can sence it. And I don't like it one bit.

I have bitten people/dogs before, and I got my reasons as well.

Living on a farm is my life. I've killed possoms and raccoons before. And chased cows into different pens, when I was able to see.

I protect cats if I know their going to get hurt. Always have and always will.

I'm a nice guy to get along with. Get to know me. :)
