Silver Medal and Some Puppies

Cosette and I have chosen our favourite Olympian from this year's winter games.
Gus Kenworthy is doing more in Sochi than just skiing. He found some new friends in a litter of pups that were hanging around the Olympic village. And going beyond just getting some treats and loving on them during his time in Russia, Gus is working on getting vaccinations and everything needed to bring the pups, and even their Mom home to the States.
After everything I went through to get Cosette home from India, I have an insane amount of respect for this guy, who is both rescuing these dogs, and also competing in the Olympics! I mean, seriously, he just won a silver medal! It would be so easy to say that he had too much to focus on, he couldn't be bothered with stray puppies. And that makes it that much more impressive.
Anyway, I just wanted to share our favourite with you. Check out the article below to read more about Gus and the pups
