    Love th photos, expecially him rolling over and Sunny standing laughing next to him!

    Bean let Moon do the 'dirty work' of explaining just who is in charge, ha haaa.
    Yes, Moon "trained" Sunny too. He just has to let them know who's in charge.

    Welcome (officially) home Gus!!
    He is such a cutie!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Welcome home, Gus.

    He really seems to know who actually owns the car he's riding in.
    The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.

    Gus's hemoglobin was 3?! No wonder he was lethargic. My goodness! I'm not exactly sure what a normal hemoglobin should be for a puppy, though I would think it should be at least 8 or 9. Gus, you are already dressed up for Halloween with your black and white tuxedo coat! Could you be any cuter, I really don't see how I'm sure you are now eating healthful food, playing with puppy toys and learning everything you need to know from Sunny and Moon!
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Elise, his Hgb should have been around 15. They also use a value called a PCV (packed cell volume) and he should have been around 45 and instead was 10. He really was minutes away from dying by the time we got him to the animal hospital (our vet gave him IV fluids and drew the blood but they don't have blood available for transfusions so we had to take him 20 minutes away). From what I've read about hookworms, puppies can crash FAST and that's exactly what happened. We are so happy he is a happy healthy boy now and we all love him tons, especially Sunny

    It's amazing how quickly he took over everyone and everything

    You need to get another picture of him and Lori out on the grass. He will tower over her now!

    What did they say his breed mix was?

    He is so darn cute!!

    I agree completely - on both points! Hello, 6-month puppy Gus! I am so glad you're healthy and happy!
