My Pet Pal: Gus

September 24, 2018 12:00 am • Last Updated: September 24, 2018 8:35 am

Meet my granddog Gus, a friendly, 4-year-old boxer. He lives with his best buddies Bill and Kris in Griswold. Gus stays home lounging on the couch during the day, but then he loves to play Frisbee, chase a ball, ride in the car and visit Home Depot, where he meets a lot of new friends. He is so easy to get along with, only asking for love, treats, ear rubs and visits to grandma. He is definitely living the good life!
