Soccer Dog!

Soccer Dog

Gus never ceases to surprise me, he is up for anything anytime. I took him and Red over to Pompanuck Farm to see the refugee kids from Albany and Rochester, and they went outside in the bitter cold to play some soccer.

Gus jumped right in, chasing the ball back and forth, rushing out into the snow to block it, managing to keep from gettin kicked or stomped on. He was invited to join the RISSE soccer team (Red is already the mascot, but he was staying inside where it is warm.)

Gus had a blast out there. It was 8 degrees and windy, and the dog who is supposed to need sweaters and booties stated out there for a half an hour and then jumped in everybody’s lap. Gus is up for anything.
