Gus was shivering this morning. Of course we don’t have a dog sweater. Supergirl’s shirt fit him perfectly! He’s been wearing it all day and seems much warmer. We’re totally going to give him a complex as we keep laughing at him. I mean, with him. Doesn’t he look happy?

Caption this picture. The one that makes me laugh the hardest wins something from the shop. I’ll pick a winner on Friday. I really want to know what is going on in his wee brain. He’s looks so trusting doesn’t he? It even made the Holiday card….. wanna see more? He loved this photo shoot.

“I hate it when daddy goes out of town.” Gus
“Looking for something?”
“Note to self: Don’t shiver in front of the humans ever again.”
Gus rued the day he let his friend Clarence dress him for a night out. While he didn’t mind the gay bar, per se, he wasn’t a fan of the show-off-your-pex costume.
“Do you think I should have my chest waxed?”
“What? I’m just practicing for my new modeling gig at the GAP!” - Gus
Chicks dig me. - Gus
Quoting what was said to the Harlot today ” What are you looking at??”
“Do you want Cojo or Cujo?”
(as in Steven Cojocaro or Stephen King)
“And I trusted you!”
Okay, I got dressed, so can I eat at the table like a civilized person now instead of on the floor?
“please, oh please, oh please scout, do NOT name a colourway after this”
Oh, I am so going to chew on something tonight while she’s sleeping.
“Dignity or warmth? Its a tough call.”
*ahem* THE GIRL WANTS HER SHIRT BACK.
Please kill me.
“‘Gus’? Who eez deez ‘Gus’? Ciao bella, I am BRUNO. For small fee, I vil remove shirt and I vil disco-dance for you.”
Yes, I am one hot mama! - Gus.
I’m too sexy for this shirt, too sexy for this shirt, so sexy it hurts. No really, I mean it.
Hot dog! No way will Fifi turn me down for a date now.
Lights, camera, action, I’m just gettin’ my fash’on!
Tyra says, “Gus, honey, you don’t look like America’s
next top model…you look like a white
Miss J.!”
“WTF? I’m a dog!!!”
“Like, that’s hot.”
I was going to try to think of something cute, but I can’t top “‘Gus’? Who eez deez ‘Gus’? Ciao bella, I am BRUNO. For small fee, I vil remove shirt and I vil disco-dance for you.” LOL That made me snort tea out my nose.
“Ugh, Mom….three-quarter sleeves are so last season. I need some new clothes!!”
Just wait until you’re asleep. You’ll pay for this! - Gus
And you call yourself a knitter… I’m wearing a freakin cotton t-shirt!
You know how much I hate looking low rent and we won’t *even*
discuss the color. If I don’t have a knitted kimono jacket
by Christmas, I’m chewing up all your circular needles.
Crap, I knew I should have stuffed the tissue paper on my biceps not my chest!
“You know what you can do with your double pointed needles…? Bend over and I’ll show you!”
“Dude, no, you _cannot_ borrow this shirt again! When I get it back from you, it totally smells like _human_.”
I’m so hot I make your panties drop. Popozao!
Wanna jump in the hot tub?
Don’t you wish your girlfriend was HOT like me?
“HI-KEEBA!”
“I’m too sexy for this shirt, too sexy for this shirt… so sexy it HURTS!!!”- Green Gus
Gus struggles to decide which makes him madder - that his sleeves are too short and make him look like he’s got Popeye arms, or that he can’t bite his owners because then he’ll NEVER get this goofy shirt off.
“If you’re cold, put on a sweater.” Gus considers Brenda Dayne’s words of wisdom, but all he can find is this silly t-shirt.
“It’s not that easy being green…”
“You hate me don’t you? No, really. You H A T E me.
What? Put the camera down. No pictures!!
What? Do I LOOK like Brittany Spears? I look like who? Paris Hilton with a bad perm!?! Oh, that’s it. You are going down sister.”
I’m laughing too hard to come up with a caption!
So what, it was a hand-me-down! Whatcha looking at!
Do you really hate me that much? I mean, I’ve resigned myself to the fact that I’m a dog and you’re the master but come on! Cut me some slack!
“does this make my butt look big?”
“It’s bad enough that I get leftovers from the table, but now I have to wear hand-me-downs from the girl! Pretty soon I’ll have a collar made of leftover yarn.”
Mom why are you hiding all my beautiful curls
“Peanuts, peanuts, dancing through my head.
I wonder if Louie got our circus application. I am totally going to be a trapeze artist!”
Don’t even THINK about a poodle skirt.
AGAIN??
My Mom’s standard gets that same look whenever she gets the sweatshirt treatment. Patient resignment until something smelly can be located.
Awwww! I’m a good girl, I am!! Just you wait,
‘enry ‘iggins, just you wait!!
“See what happens when you don’t swatch?”
Look girlie, put down that camera and go get some of those sticks and string you always seem to have around and make me a manly, man sweater. No I’m serious. Stop it now and get a move on it. Bad enough you put me in hand me downs but from a girl?!?! You’re just lucky I don’t bite you right now. Well thank god these pictures won’t ever be seen.
“Just you wait till you’re asleep, then you’re in big trouble!” Gus
The Project Rungay guys are sooo gonna rip this on their site!
“I am SO getting even. I’m gonna pee in her shoes tonight while she sleeps! Yup-yup, the red ones, and the black ones, and the brown ones, and those really expensive high-heeled leather ones she likes to wear for Daddy…” -Gus
Gee, I swear this shirt fit great in the arms yesterday! What did you feed me?????–Gus
“You couldn’t come up with a blog entry on your own, so you resort to making fun of the dog. Real original.”
Gus channels the spirit of Freddie Mercury.
Thanks for the shirt, but hey! MY BUTT IS COLD! Hook it up, yo!
Hmmm,
must remember that they love me,
but please,
what was mom thinking?
“Oh, Pawlease!”, says Gus while rolling his eyes, “Get this off me - soon!”
Poor thing.
Mom I totally need some legwarmers to go with this new outfit - please?
I must! I must! I must increase my bust! The bigger the better, the tighter the sweater, the boys depend on us!
You pulled me away from my rendezvous with Babette for this? Woman! Shouldn’t you be knitting or dyeing something?
Geez - I look like the Jolly Green Giant.
“Yes, zat is correct, I am French. We French know our fashion. What is zat? What did you say? You do not believe Moi? You will see. Ze boys will all be wearing zis next fall. Hrumph!”
Okay so my post doesn’t read the way it was intended. It was meant to be the dog speaking and sounding
very indignant it was not meant to be mean.
If you this this is bad, you should have seen the skirt!
“Just because my brain is the size of an average lime, doesn’t mean I want to be dressed like one!”
OR
“Mom, Dad… it’s time I come out of the closet…”
Gus: “You all think you are tutu funny, don’t ya?”
Gus looked in the mirror and sighed, “Where the hell are the Fab Five when you need them?”
Now, when it’s my turn to dress you… yes, definitely the neon pink ra-ra skirt with the American tan tights. And a yellow sequinned boob tube. Yup. That’s what _you_’ll wear my pretty.
I am fabulous. Give me the pink tutu — I, as a self-respecting French poodle, am joining the Petits Rats (ballerinas) de l’Opéra in Paris and get the fame I so deserve. Farewell, ungrateful masters!
“Well at least it fits me.”
Even Tim Gunn can’t make this work!–Gus
That is so funny that it makes me want to dress dogs up!
Bah, humbug, does this look like a hand knitted sweater?
I think we found the next contestant for that show, “What not to wear.”
The difference is….
I make this look good!
What are you talking about? The Poodle invented Metro.
I am the MAN! The Man! Her main man. I am the man. So manly.
Isn’t this what every dancer wears to audition for Nutcracker? Now where are those leg warmers and toe shoes?
“In fashion, you’re either in, or you’re out. Auf weidesehn, Gus.”
-or-
“Another fashion victim screaming for Queer Eye for the Straight Dog.”
-or-
“She’s My Man.” (ala Scissor Sisters)
If I end up on Go Fug Yourself with Paris Hilton, your favourite posession is TOAST.
Oh please, you know you want to be me!
Chris wouldn’t put Chaos in a shirt like this. How could you?
I told her I’m not a sheep. I told her to get those clippers away from me. But she’s crazed, I tell ya, crazed. Now I’m so cold…. Who shears the sheep in the middle of winter anyway??!!
Hmmmmm…….gotta find me a good agent…..
Canine aerobic dance instructor Gus readies himself for his next class by doing stretches in the family living room in Albuquerque.
I’m gonna quote the harlots new pal
“Get a good look Honey….Get as much as you need!”
I really can’t improve on the chest-waxing comment. Unless we add back-waxing.
“You put the lime in the coconut….”
THAT is a hilarious capture! His face as much as the outfit! adorable!
ok seriously mum this is as far as I go but if you start bringing that dye out I’m OUTTA HERE!
There are only so many sweaters she can knit for humans, so now Mom has turned to me.
or
Mom went to Knitville and all I got was this lousy sweater.
If only looks could kill….she’d be dead.
“I have not been in Supergirl’s room!”
“Cold water wash, lay flat to dry. Is that so hard to understand?”
I have a whole bunch for Gus:
“Are you sure Lassie got started this way?” asked Gus.
or
“It’s only fair. Supergirl was wearing a dog collar and was chained up the other night!” exclaimed Gus.
or
“You think I look stupid? It’s 10 degrees outside and Supergirl is now running around topless!” exclaimed Gus.
or
” Laugh now, but don’t be surprised if I leave a little “gift” for you in your bed later,” said Gus.
or
“I would give the shirt off my back to be cold again!” yelled Gus.
Do you mind? I’m not finished…
Laugh, and I swear I’ll pee.
“Bitch put the damn treat on my nose already I’m starving!”
“I’m so pretty! I’m so pretty! I’m so pretty and witty and GAY!”
That was bad (see my last comment) but I just couldn’t help it!!!! Everytime I look at that picture I just laugh! His expression is priceless!
If I had apposeable thumbs…you would soooooo get a pay back for this! -Gus
“weow, weow, weow” wailed the siren on the fashion police car. Gus knew it was a crime to cover up FUR with Cotton!
“Doesn’t he look happy?!? Man, I would LOVE to be able to choose your outfit for Knitty Gritty, THEN we would see who looks happy!!”
