Staffyluv Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I seriously can't believe we have done this. Here is our adorable foster boy, Gus (we call him Gussy as it suits him better because he is a fairly soft dog). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffyluv Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 And here is the new staffy boy we picked up from the pound this morning. Ziggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 What's Gus crossed with? ...he's an interesting looking dog . Ziggy looks a solid lad .. and pretty laid-back in those shots You will certainly have your hands full! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffyluv Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 Not sure what Gussy is crossed with pers but he is really little. I know Kelpies are not big dogs but this guy is really small. Ziggy is a solid lad and very laid back but still gets that puppy excitement (staffy style)... he can be full on but is very afraid and drops to his tummy at any raised voice (Cory called me from inside and the poor boy just froze) Gussy weighs in at 9.2kg and I will weigh Ziggy when we take him up for vaccs later today but he is heavier than Gussy by a few kgs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

persephone Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Oh.. only 9 kg? I would be thinking maybe staffy x? in the first photos- I was admiring the red kelpie- and wondering why the other dog was in the photo ;) apologies. Looking forward to progress reports (and thinking your poor son will have his hands full while you're away!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to progress reports (and thinking your poor son will have his hands full while you're away!) The first photo in this thread is Gussy - he is definitely Kelpie x but it would be with something smaller as he has a tiny frame (he almost looks fragile - but I am used to robust staffords)... He does not have any staffy traits or look like stafford at all to me. There are so many black and tan dog breeds, it would be hard to say what he is crossed with. But he is a little ball of cuteness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavik Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Funny that you say he almost looks fragile - if I didn't know better and had no perspective I would think Rotty in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyCresties Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Congratulations on your new boy :D I can't belive Gus is only 9kg! He looks like such a big boy in the pics - until you see a plant pot next to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staffyluv Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) I really think Gussy has so much potential. He is so quick and loves the ball and other toys. Flyball champ maybe?? I just bought out Ollie's toy basket and both of them are having a ball with the 2 footballs and all the other stuff - they have it all pulled out all over the place. They are both in my office with me - rumbling behind me over a football. The noise are so funny. Edited October 31, 2011 by Staffyluv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffyluv Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 This toy that Gussy has is only about 30cm long - so that might give an indication of how small he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
