Friends don’t say goodbye. They say, “See you soon.”

My approach to mornings involves the three C's: Cuddling, staying Cozy, and being Cute.

I'm just going to keep an eye on this. I'm not sure what it is, but it smells really good.

I hear Thanksgiving is tomorrow, and it’s my first one. Can anyone give me some pointers on what to expect?

And so it begins......

A haiku for the leaves:

Oh, what a delight!
Crispy treasures under paw—
Nature’s chewy toys. 🍁🐾

Does anyone know the difference between a chicken tender and a chicken tender?

Hope the squirrels know there's a new sheriff in town.

It's been a big week since I moved to my new home, and boy have I learned a lot! I've learned how fast my legs can go, and that I'm not allowed to chew on some things.

I also learned that I get a yummy treat when I sit.

Hello I am Oliver Holcomb, but my mom and dad call me Ollie. I’m still pretty new to this “bark to text” technology, and I am a little nervous because I know I have big paws to fill.🐾🐾

Henry was an extraordinary little dog, who touched so many lives.  One token of condolence said it perfectly: If love could have kept you here, you would have lived forever.

Thank you

Dear Henry Fans:

The outpouring of kindness we have received since losing our sweet Henry has filled our hearts with gratitude, and brought smiles in place of sadness.  I have read each message multiple times, and thank everyone who took a moment to express their sentiments.

Yesterday, sweet Henry crossed the rainbow bridge. Aside from his mom and dad, Henry loved no one more than the fans he met during his 13 years. Visit https://t.co/PXqZpCRa86 to see his favorite photos from his time as First Dog of Indiana as well as statements from his parents.

'Twas 11 days before Christmas, when all through the world,
not a creature was stirring, not even a squirrel.
I was nestled, all snug in my bed,
while visions of playtime danced in my head.
Me with my ribbon, and squirrel with a cap,
are settling down for a long winter's nap.

My face snuggled on the couch vs my face when the humans make me go outside in the cold. #RuffLife

Every dog should be the center of attention on his Birthday. A Christmas tree full of mini Henrys is definitely a good first step, but this birthday boy is hoping for some extra snuggles and maybe a nibble of those Thanksgiving leftovers!
