Gus REALLY Wants an Indoor Pool

04/24/2015 Posted by Melanie 79 Comments

Gus really, REALLY wants an indoor pool. Who wouldn’t? Despite his mother’s protests, he is going to make his dream a reality. Of course, mom is so amused by his antics that she only half-heartedly discourages him.

Wendy Phillips knows just how Gus’ mom feels, and posted a photo of her pup with the caption, “It’s a bulldog thing.”

Here are some other dogs who aren’t happy with their pool placement, either.

To see more of Gus’ silliness:
