Take me home already!!!

After a long day of eating every other dog in the cube's food and playing with anyone that passes by the cube, Mr. George is ready to be transported home.

I am helping Marisa at work!

I get to press this funny shaped button that says "Enter".

This is my new "mate" Cooper

He has a funny accent when he barks and calls me "mate". I don't know what's wrong with him.

So lonely

Where did everybuddy go?

Working hard? Or hardly working?

That's me and godmommie at work! Only one of us is working though...

George knows raincoat = rain. He's so smart!

Meet my new buddy Arthur

I have a new friend! His name is Arthur. His mommy and daddy are Julia and Shawn. Arthur thinks he can be alpha dog because he is bigger than me, but I am speedy and small enough to squeeze under chairs. Neener neener, Arthur...

I know she wants to do this too

But I don't know how to make slides, so I'll do the napping for both of us

If you look carefully...

You can see our old house!

I'm not a celebrity...

But get me outta here!!!

Hmm that's a lot of water

If I drink all that, I'm going to have to pee real bad...

Fun at Point Isabel

Yay!! I <3 this doggie park!

You can just leave it at my door

It's too cold to get out of bed.

"Cute but hella dumb"

I heard viv call me that! :(

This might be my favourite-est place

In the whole wide world!! Except maybe canada. It's pretty nice there.
