02/19/25 10:56What did we do on today’s adventure: What a day! When the car door opened, I saw that it was full of squeaky toys! Ihopped in right away, picked my favorite one, sat down and squeaked away!Once we got to the trail, I had to be coaxed out of the car, because, really, I kinda wanted to take all the squeaky toys with us, but the human picked onethat we would take with us, and then off we went!I trotted along, sniffing every tree, rock, and leaf. Sometimes, I got a little tenseseeing another dog on the trail, but we gave them a wide berth and I washappily distracted by the human feeding me treats! I was very happy on this walk - we ran into some parts where we had to crossthis huge river (akavery large puddle). I just ran and splashed right throughand then I was so proud, I asked the human for a treat for my effort, which Iheartily ate.The best part? After the hike, I hopped right back into the car like a pro, readyto squeak my toys to my heart’s content.What should potential adopters know about me: Gustav is quick to engage with you. His trust in you is instant, eventhough I set things up in the car to make sure he had a good supplyof squeaky toys. He was completely quiet and calm in the car goingto and from the trail. He is reactive to seeing other dogs on leash, butif you give them a wide berth and help Gustav along with some treatsor a toy - he’ll follow you. Walking, he’s a 9/10 - minus the ‘reactingto other dogs’ factor. He checked in regularly with me and Imanaged to get a few kisses after water breaks. Sometimes he camein just to get petted. Gustav is a really sweet dog and is a happy-go-lucky guy – he’ll make a great and loving companion for his fureverfamily.Three words to describe me: Sweet, Gentle, Friendly11/20/24 06:51Dog Day Out ReportToday I: went to the Guadalupe River Trail with my friend and had a loooong walk, sniffing a ton of interesting scents!

He was super easy—actual
