Henry

After the baby is born, I am thinking about getting a pet patio pickup service for Henry. (at least for a few months during my time off) I have a feeling that once we start this service, we will never want it to end. Or maybe it won't be so hard to take out Henry and the baby all by myself.

I bought this nightshirt at Target yesterday. I just have to keep thinking that Henry will be home soon... (no closing date on the condo yet, but it should be soon!)

Thanksgiving

My husband and I are leaving for MI today! I plan on making pies and pumpkin muffins, helping my Grandma prepare Thanksgiving dinner, getting my hair cut, meeting friends for happy hour, finding furniture for our new place, and spending time with family and Henry. (directions for the center piece made by Eddie Ross are here)

I miss Henry, part 2

Have you seen this dress up close? It has dogs all over it and I love it. I even wore it all last weekend with black leggings. And in case you can't tell with all of my dog posts, I really miss Henry. (He is in MI while we are looking for a home to buy - our building we live in right now does not allow dogs)

I miss Henry

He is in Michigan until we find a new home.

(dogs are not allowed in the building we are staying in for now)

I even had a dream last night that we got a new dog and it looked identical to Henry.

snuggie for dogs

I wonder if Henry would like this? Probably not.

Henry

Tonight, as I was heating up my dinner in the microwave, I found Henry snuggling with his new buddy. And he continued to do so while I took pictures like a good mom.

Happy Birthday

Henry turned 4 today!

The celebration included a new buddy, a ball, a couple treats, and

he got to play with my dirty socks.

My Buddy

Remember my buddy?

I overheard my husband singing the theme song to Henry.

(my dog)

Instead of singing buddy, he used Henry's name.

"My Henry, my Henry, my Henry, my Henry, my Henry and me."

My heart melted because I don't even think George knew I heard him singing.

I am a sucker for anything having to do with a Dachshund.
Here are some of my latest findings:

Henry

This is Henry preparing for the Paws walk with his new puppia harness in September. I had to train him for a week to get him to walk with the harness. There was a 20 minutes episode outside of Barnes and Noble on State St. in which he froze and would not walk. (A man even got off of his cell phone to watch the event unfold.) I eventually won by throwing a ball down the sidewalk all the way home. Daschunds can be very stubborn!

Henry as a hot dog - he hates to dress up.

(in the past he has been a bee and pumpkin)
