🎙️ Episode 631: “Who Wants Goose?!” 🦮💥

🐾 The Dog Dad Dilemma: How It Started vs. How It’s Going

• Scott’s son Jack brought home Goose, a lanky, brindle-colored mutt with the energy of a toddler hopped up on Red Bull.
• Spoiler: Goose immediately launched a full-scale assault on Scott’s sanity, house, and patience.
• But here’s the kicker—Scott’s fallen for this slobbering tornado of destruction. Because of course he has. Meet Goose:

💥 Destruction & Devotion: Goose’s Reign of Terror

• Imagine coming home to find your living room looking like a crime scene, but the only victim is your furniture.
• Shredded pillows? Check. Ripped-up beds? Check. Random puddles of mystery fluid? Double check.

• Scott can’t help but admire the sheer determination, even if it means his house is slowly being converted into rubble.
• Oh, and Goose now sleeps in Scott’s bed. Because boundaries? Never heard of them.
