It's been a back year.

In July my parents noticed I wasn't juming like I normally did. They took me to the vet and the vet said he was going to treat me with medicine but that I needed to limit my activity. So it was for a while, then after the pills started to work I was back to my old tricks.

Then my sister Gracie had to have emergency surgery for her back in October.

3 weeks later I was back at the vet for my back problem. They are trying to keep me druged up to avoid surgery. I am feeling better. Those antinflamitories are great.

To top it all off, it started to snow today:(

What next for this family?

OH MY GOODNESS

Hey Ya'll,

Can you believe that it's been just shy of a year since I last wrote in my diary? This is crazy. I am going to have a long chat with my mommy about that. I think that it is crazy and I want to make sure that it doesn't happen again. So let me tell you that this last year hasn't been a huge deal. Same old stuff happens day in and day out. My daddy was out of work for about a month and it was nice to have him home all day everyday. Then he went back to work and now it's back in our cages all day waiting for mommy and daddy to come home. Gage and I are best buddies. I have trained him to be just like me. He does everything that I do. I still love, love, love treats. And I am looking forward to the warm weather so mommy will take us for walks again. That's all for now, be looking for my REGULAR diary entries.

Oops

Dog Dang It!!! I forgot to post after my page was finished. Mom finally finished my page. Isn't it great. She worked very hard on all our pages and we appreciate it more than she knows.

We are having a blizard today and so mom gets to stay home with us. It's nice having her home. She was kind of upset with us this morning cause she found a stinky surprise in the computer room. She hates that, but in our defense... it cold outside and we can't stand it.

Keep warm and dry -

Sad Gus

My mommy has been so busy working on everyone elses page that mine is kinda empty.

Please keep checking back to watch my page come to life.

Thank you-

Hey-

Gus here. Just stopping by to say hi. It has been a while since my last entry. It is summer again and I love it. No more snow!!!! There is however rain, which makes the grass wet, which makes my tummy wet, which makes me cold, which makes me unhappy, which makes my mommy hold me, which makes me happy, which makes me lick her, which makes her put me down, which makes me unhappy again, which makes her give me a treat, which makes me happy again. I am a complicated sweetheart.

Lickin is good

Gus Ryder :)

COOL A NEW BROTHER

COOL I'M GETTING A NEW BROTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'M NOT GOING TO BE THE BABY ANYMORE, THAT KINDA MAKES ME SAD, BUT OH WELL. GORDON AND I WILL TEACH HIM THE ROPES. IT WILL BE FUN. THANK GOD IT ISN'T ANOTHER SISTER. THEY ARE KINDA CRABBY.

GRACIE IS GOING TO THE VET FOR SOME SURGERY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S A HUGE DEAL. IT WILL BE NICE TO HAVE THE HOUSE FOR JUST ME AND GORDON FOR A DAY. NO BOSSY GRACIE TO TELL US WHAT TO DO.

SNOW :(

Hi Everybody :(

I am a Gloomy Gus today :(

Because it snowed yesterday :(

I had been warned about this stuff called snow :(

I DO NOT LIKE IT, this I know :(

I want to stay inside and be warm and dry :)

Cause if I go outside, I start to cry :(

This horrible stuff so cold and so white :(

It gives me a terrible, aweful fright :(

Snow hater-
Gloomy Gus :(

Caught in the act :(

Hi-

It's great having a brother to play with!!!! However I've learned that sometimes when we think we're just playing, we're actually getting in to trouble.

For example, the other night, my brother Gordon and I were in the Kitchen playing with these big orange balls. These balls are great because they have this stick coming out the top. Gordon and I love chewing sticks, but I digress.
Gordon and I were being good and minding our own business, playing with the big orange balls when Gordon (NOT ME...) figured out the balls were edible. Gordon took a bite, then I took a bite. Gordon took another and so on and so on, all of the sudden mommy yells "STOP EATING THOSE PUMPKINS"

Well at least she won't have to waste her time carving that one!!!!

Be good and mind your parents-
