Christmas Week!

A quick round-up of December Fun!

Dobby loves the little heater!

Dobby helps my best friend, R, write a final paper.

Dobby has a nice visit with Zinnie!

A Quick 'Hello' and- Christmas Card Exchange??

Hi everyone! We are still here, just having a busy fall. The weather has been uncommonly nice so we have been taking lots of trips to the park, which Dobby loves. I've been busy with school, but that just means Dob can enjoy quiet evenings snuggled next to me while I work :)


I just this week got out my Christmas things- I'm going home to Maryland for Thanksgiving, so I am decorating before I leave (so I will get to come home to Christmas cheer!) I found lots of great cards from four-legged friends from the past two years we have been a part of this great community but it made me think "HEY! What about this year?" So: Are we having a card exchange? I would love to send you all cards, and would really enjoy getting cards from anyone who sends them out. Please email me if you're interested in swapping cards (or just receiving one!) at sekelly2 (at) gmail (dot) com.

UPDATE: Thanks for telling me about Fiesty Three! I emailed them. If you're not on their list, though, please still email me directly if you'd like a card!

The New House

Well, it has been a busy week! Dobby and I are all moved in to the new house, and I dropped off my key at the old place earlier today. So it's official: we've moved! Here is Dobby checking out his new place before we got all the furniture and stuff in:


And here is his new favorite spot in the living room: a seat with a view!



We'll be back again soon with more pictures :)

Old News

Hi everyone! So I'd like to explain two factors that have kept me from Dobby's blog. My computer is broken again so I'm using my friend's computer again. It just limits my ability to save and access old pictures. I've also been back and forth between MD and NC all summer which makes organizing my thoughts a little more complicated. I'm still hoping to get back into blogging regularly, but wanted to start with some old news :)

In March, I made a trip up to MD to visit my parents and on the way back down I was asked to do a dog transport! Here is the little fuzzy girl I took from northern VA down to NC:

What do you think: is she a Pomeranian? She barked for about 2 hours in the car, but Dobby was a little angel as usual- I am continually impressed by how well he goes with the flow- he just completely ignored her.

Some other old pictures of Dob, from March. Enjoy :)






Ok, back again soon with more!!

Busy, busy, busy

It's crazy season at school again, and I've been neglecting Dobby's blog! I have been trying to keep up on all your blogs though. Here's just a little something until I have more time to post :)

Dobby trying to get tall....

....and snug as a bug

Sorry!

I have been really lazy about updating for Dobby lately- sorry! Hopefully soon I will get back in the swing of things :)

Dobby's date

Dobby said he had a lovely time with his Princess Coco. He got home very late last night... so he is just sleeping all day today! You really wore him out, Coco ;)

More computer troubles!

The computer has gotten to the point of no return and will be wiped sometime in the next week or so... luckily I have everything backed up and won't lose much. In the meantime, I won't be able to post- so here is a little something to tide us over until I can return! (Zinnie is visiting this week!)





We'll be back as soon as possible :)

Computer Troubles :( ...but New Camera :)

Hi all! My computer is in the shop for repairs, so updating might be sporadic the next week or so. I did get a memory stick for my new camera though, so I should have some good pictures to post by the time I get my computer back! For now, here are a few older ones.

I love that little tail peaking out!
What a silly goose. He gets comfortable in the funniest positions.

Where Dobby Sleeps

A long, long time ago Dozer tagged Dobby to show the places where he sleeps. Dob has a couple of beds, but doesn't really use them....

Zinnie uses this green bed when she is visiting more than Dobby ever does.

You might recognize this bed as the one Dobby fights with- he never lays in it.

Dobby has the cutest, tiniest little crate I've ever seen! It's adorable. He does sleep in it once in a while, especially in the evenings if he wants quiet time. He also knows the command "Go in your house" and will stay there without the door closed if I ask him to.

This, as you know, is "The Nest" and Dobby sleeps here almost all day every day. He loves his nest so much that if the blanket is folded up he will make sad eyes at you until you make him a nest. He also knows that his blanket = safety. He is much calmer on car trips if he's wrapped up in his blankey.

The best place to sleep, though, is obviously the big bed with mommy. <3

Eeyore

My mom got Dobby this little Eeyore at a yard sale. It crinkles when you squeeze it, and Dob likes the fuzzy hair.

Dobby's Favorite Perch

Dobby loves to sit on top of our green couch. From one end, he can watch out the back doors, and from the other he can see the front door. Sometimes he sets up camp for a long shift of guard duty, complete with snuggle blanket.

Where's the Nest?

The house that I rent is for sale, so we have to keep it looking tidy and neat for showings. On this day, I had just folded up Dobby's blanket, taking away his nest. He was determined to get comfortable anyway :)

Small Boy, Big Couch

I have several pictures of him on this couch- for some reason he just looks extra tiny when he sits on it!
