Perspective

Gus is a big dog.  Larger than the breed standard, and taller than average counter height, to my everlasting dismay and his delight.

But, in perspective, he's just a lovable little fuzzball.

P.S. He takes his responsibilities seriously.  He stands lookout for feral cats, squirrels and the odd racoon or opossum. He announces sightings with great gusto and does not leave his post until he is relieved.
