Sick Puppy

Joe got home today from school to find the house filled with a terrible stench. It seems as if Gus got a bit sick (vomit and poop) and it was all over him and the inside of his kennel. Joe did his best to get the mess out of the house (used a whole can of Febreeze!) and aired out the house the best he could.

After cleaning up the mess, Jeff and I, took Gus to the Animal ER. After a few tests....it seems as if Gus had a bacteria infection. It could have been worse. We thought he ate a sock or something like that. So, we have some pills to give him twice a day. We also got him a small fence - like cage for the garage. We thought it would be best to keep him there during the day and not in the house.

It was a long day - and a few hundred dollars, but we feel as if Gus will be all right (in a few days).
