Spring Time Hooray!

Hi all! Last post I talked about taking Dob for a run in the baseball fields of a local park. We've gone several times since then. Usually we just walk, but sometimes, we do the baseball-run thing. He loves it!! Once, about three weeks ago, I remembered to take my camera:

His little butt is so cute!

That day we took squeeky, his favorite toy, to play fetch :)

Then we finished off the afternoon with a walk through the rest of the park. Dob LOVES peeing on ornamental grasses. He finds them really irresistible!

The park--this was just before everything started to bloom and grow.

My favorite--an action shot! Yay!
The weather has been super gorgeous here, and we are lovin' every minute! A lot of days, I'll get home from work and we sit outside for an hour or two just reading and hanging around. Plus, I have a surprise I'll be posting about soon... A surprise that just happened TODAY and made Dobby a very happy boy :):)

Gasp!

I can't believe I let so much time go by since my last post! The truth is, I don't have a lot of time these days. I am graduating in May so this semester is all about thesis writing. I'm also taking one class and working part time... so, you can imagine ChihuahuaPost has fallen down some on my list of priorities :( My little Dobby is just as important as ever, though! I make sure we go for walks all the time, and he is still a spoiled little brat.

Today was a really beautiful day here in NC--it was in the mid-sixties all day. We went to the park to go for a lovely walk, but as we were walking through a field, Dobby spontaneously burst into a run! He was on a leash so I ran alongside him to the end of the field. He hardly ever gets to run like that outside because I don't like to take his leash off him unless it's an enclosed area, and there aren't many public fenced-in fields around, especially ones that have cut grass (because uncut grass is too tall for him to run in!) I could tell he was so happy to be out in the sunshine he just wanted to run, run, run! Nearby there were some fenced-in baseball fields, so we went into one and ran, and ran, and ran for about half an hour. It was a blast. He was so happy! I will definitely be doing this again--the baseball fields are a great idea.

I don't have pictures from today's spontaneous fun, but here are some recent ones:




PS Happy Valentine's Day to you and all our four-legged lovies!

This is the bed that Dobby never sleeps in; he only fights it.
