Oh, that's a great story, Sue! Gosh, you had me laughing so hard, and don't our fur babies surprise us! 😁😁😁

Yes, Gus doesn't read much either much to our disappointment since we love to read. Training requires more than just classtime, but some people never get  that;  I know former classmates who struggle in life because they never studied beyond the bare minimum (barring learning challenges), but that's how they approach all aspects of life.

Gus trains quickly even with just me, and hubby was impreseed with what he'd learned. I just want to learn more about his triggers for barking, etc., maybe more to keep me calmer when he gets excited if anything else.

Our vet and family are jewels, and Gus loves them. They are intelligent, pragmatic folks and their guidance follows what we've researched. They are have a superb system for reminding us of his annual and other vaccines, appointments, etc. They manage both in high-tech and high-touch. They offer some really healthy foods, and Three Dog Bakery started here in KC by dog owners who baked for their own pups. Really nutritious food, and they bake/create specialty treats on site. There is one snack in particular that Gus loves, and gosh if it doesn't smell good. We also prepare him good, very lean, unseasoned, skin-free protein which has been great for his digestion, energy and coat. He will munch very petite carrots as a treat, too, and is not an over-eater. Overall, he's getting in shape from our walks, and so am I.😊😊😊

But I would love your recipe! That would be great to prepare for Gus and our close friends' dogs, too! What fun that would be. And a couple postal carriers keep on hand dog treats, and this would be so cool to give them the treats to share. Thank you so much!!!😀😀😀 I'll let you know how my popularity rises....

Yes, we are proud of and entertained by our little guy. A real character as we see more of his personality. Yes, he does love to please, and we are so lucky. And also lucky to have wise, caring friends like you. You and our friends here have really been so helpful with Gus, and his momma is most grateful! 💗💗💗💗💗
