Augustus Goggles Ribar (Gus)






On Thursday, Dave and I picked up a new puppy!! We would like to introduce you to Augustus Goggles Ribar, for short we call him Gus. He is a schnoodle, which is a cross between a schnauzer and a poodle. He will be about 45-60 pounds when he is full grown.


So far he has been a great little puppy - following us around everywhere and doing his duties where appropriate! He's also been good for a lot of laughs. He's still pretty clumsy, and when he tries to run as fast as he can his front legs can't keep up and he does a face plant. Yesterday we introduced him to Rachel's family, and he LOVED Maddie and Grace. The breeder we got him from had kids who handled the puppies every day. Gus's face lit up and he ran over to Maddie and Grace when they walked in the door.


We weren't sure if we were going to get another puppy after Marley died, but now we are so glad that we did! Marley still holds a special place in our hearts, but we've got lots of puppy love to go around :) We'll update often with stories and pictures!

Hi! I just want to let you know that I have stumbled upon your blog and have enjoyed reading it. It is hard to find others who are also adopting from the Philippines. I think we are about a month in the process behind you. Our dossier was received in the Philippines the later part of September. Sending prayers for some great news to come your way. :)
