Go Patriots!

I am so excited that the Patriots are going to be playing in the Super Bowl. Although I am sad to retire my Steelers bandana and Yuengling Black & Tan binges with Daddy until next fall, I'm really happy to break out my Patriots gear to support Mommy's team. From now on, I will only answer to the name of "Tom Brodie."

Up to No Good

When the people weren't looking, I decided to play a little prank on Mindy while she was sleeping in her bed. I collected all of her toys and put them right on top of her! She even looks like one of her stuffed animal toys.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I've been enjoying the lazy dog days of the holidays. Christmas was the best! My grandmother Merrill made me my very own stocking, and because I was such a good boy this year, Santa came and brought me lots of doggy treats too. Mindy and I had fun wearing our holiday sweater finery. We even got to chase a rabbit that was in the backyard Christmas night.

Also, I got lots of presents from my friends, family, and fans. My great-grandparents in Massachusetts sent me some delicious treats that came in a bag. I made sure to sniff the bag thoroughly to make sure no cookies got left behind.

I also got some tasty treats from my cousins Mac and Rennie in New Hampshire. Don't you love the great action shot of me with the rawhide chew that they gave me?

I partied a little too hard early on New Year's Eve. By the time the ball dropped, I was passed out and missed the whole thing.

'Tis the Season

I don't know what Christmas is yet, but I've been hearing Mommy and Daddy talk a lot about it lately. So far, I know that there is a strange tree in my house, and this magical new cave behind it with lights in it that I have just discovered. I also know that Christmas involves my "holiday sweater," which I am quite fond of wearing, because whenever I wear it, people come over to the house. I love meeting people and making new friends! Christmas is the best!

Goldilocks Dog

When I visit the homes of other dogs, I like to eat their food, play with their toys, and sleep on their beds. In the above picture, I'm sleeping on Ollie's bed. In the below picture, I'm sleeping on Mindy's bed. Finders keepers!

I can dance like the best D list celebrities!

I'm Helpful

Since being adopted, I have been given certain chores I'm supposed to do around the house. Most of my chores are simple house pet duties, like guarding the house when Mommy and Daddy aren't home and cuddling Mommy and Daddy when they are home. I also have other responsibilities as well, like making the beds each morning.
