Belated Memorial Day Weekend

Over Memorial Day weekend I was lucky enough to have a friend invite me to a family member's house to camp out in the backyard and hang out around the pool. It was Chewie's first time experiencing a body of water larger than the few inches that usually sit at the bottom of the tub during his bath time. He also go to run free since the yard was fenced in. Needless to say he had a blast.

Dog Days

November 26, 2013. The day I became a puppy parent.
Long story short. I wanted a yorkie, but turns out they are very expensive. Then one day I stumbled upon an ad for a shorkie, a yorkie and shih tzu mix. I contacted the breeder and after one picture I knew I had found my dog. I really wanted a dog that looked like a star wars character and so...

This was his first day home. So small and calm...

Of course his first toy had to be a plush carrot. It's a family tradition.

calm, sleepy puppy...

Possibly one of my favorite pictures. My roommates cat, Merlin, isn't too fond of
having a dog in the house...

He enjoys the simple things in life, like ribbons

Chewie: "Woof"

He's a non stop playing machine, bundle of fur and he's all mine. We are currently taking puppy training classes so hopefully soon he'll be a well-behaved bundle of fur.
