For posterity's sake I decided to list the problems that poor Gus has had since we moved to our new apartment a month ago.
*The day we moved in we brought him over to check things out...he pooped on our bedroom floor.
*The day after we moved in...he threw up on the living room floor. All of our cleaning supplies were still at the old apartment and I could tell that he was going to puke some more. So, I definitely held him over the toilet while he threw up two more times!
*We live on the third floor, and when we first moved in Gus was terrified of the stairs. He are pretty sure he has a fear of heights and the stairs and landings are wooden and you can see through the cracks. We literally had to drag him up and down the stairs every single time we took him out up until about two weeks ago.
*There is a gas fireplace in our living room, one day I kept finding little black pieces of something on the carpet. I finally caught Gus digging bits of rock out of the fireplace and eating them. Not a smart idea to eat rocks that have been in a gas fireplace. He was sick for a few days. We invested in a fireplace screen.
*About a week after we moved in Ryan came home to find that Gus had gotten into his food. We estimated that the poor dog had eaten about a week's worth of food in one afternoon. Needless to say, there was poop and puke everywhere. Also needless to say, we did not feed him for two days afterwards and he laid around with a swollen belly. Poor ornery little guy!
*Last week Gus got ahold of a new Netflix DVD and decided to shred the wrapper into a million pieces as well as bite through the DVD. Yup, we had to pay for that one.
I'm hoping that things level out pretty soon. This dog is far too spoiled to be acting out! He sure is cute though!

Poor Gussy-
Maybe it's the only way he knows to tell you he just wants to go home. =(
Give him a hug and a kiss for me.
He has been kissed and hugged for you my dear! :)
