What a impact Gus made in our lives and in our hearts. He will be missed. Gus was the HC overall and HIT cattle at the WI Nationals years ago - what a talented Aussie! Thanks to Jeanne Joy Hartnagle and Jimmy Hartnagle for allowing Gus to live his life with us. Steve will miss Gus' antics and vibrant spirit, as will we.

 

Gus broke his back leg at 4 months of age. We got him to the vets timely; they set it and it healed. The rest is history. Gus was a can-do Aussie. He'd run everyone's life if he could:) He & Steve were a perfect match and quite the characters together (so alike - LOL). If you look closely in the picture above, you'll see Steve holding one of those fake Georgia peaches. Gus kept trying to retrieve them out of the basket so Steve would play with him. Always ready to do anything and everything with his humans, Gus was quite the talking favorite. We retired him in '08 so he could go into his old age w/o the worries of injury or arthritis in that leg he broke at 4 months of age.
