Dog Sitting

Andy and I have been dog sitting for the past week and a half for a big grandpa hairy beast of a dog. I actually don't think he's reallllly a grandpa, he's a little older than Torii, but he's pretty boring. I have enjoyed having 2 dogs around though. I assumed it would be a lot more work, but they keep each other company and Torii needs MUCH less attention when Blue is around, which makes my life much easier. I am soooo happy with 2 dogs that I really want another dog of my own. If I had the money I would buy one of these precious puppies in a heartbeat!

I swear Boston Terriers are the cutest dogs ever; yes I am totally biased, but who can resist their squishy little faces?! The only thing I do not like about them (aside from the anal leakage issue which has been under control lately) is the fact that they need little exercise compared to big dogs. I've taken Blue for a walk every day and it has been wonderful! I forgot how much I love being outside in the winter! I've tried taking Torii with us the past 2 days but after three steps or so in the snow, she starts pouting and refuses to go any further. She can be super annoying and spoiled, but I swear not a day goes by where I don't laugh at something Torii is doing...she is a very silly dog. Yesterday I was searching all over for her, and I finally found her snuggled into the pile of clean clothes that had been recently taken out of the dryer. So adorable :)














I know eventually we will get another dog and it will be my turn to buy it, so I need to decide if I want another cute squishy face dog, or if I want a nice big dog who will go for walks without pouting and whining...

OMG, that picture of Torii snuggling in your laundry is the cutest thing I've ever seen! I can't handle it, so adorable.

I'm glad dog-sitting has been going well, I noticed Blue has really fricken skinny legs compared to the rest of his body. Very funny.

I agree, that picture of your dog in the laundry is super cute!

get a small cute squishy faced dog--those big dogs are over rated

Logan wants to get a little dog really bad. He thinks little dogs next to big dogs are so funny.
