animals – The Cheerful Times

I have exciting news to announce! October is Adopt-A-Shelter-Dog Month and Malcolm and I did just that — adopt a shelter dog!

Meet the one and only Abby, the newest contributor to The Cheerful Times.

Abby is a five-year-old chubby wubby Puggle (that’s a beagle and a pug mix), and is the absolute best, cutest little princess.

Snuggling humans
Snuggling cats
Burping
Showing her pudgy belly for scratchies
Making cute faces
Her two stuffed toys/dolls
Sleeping on items that are neither of her two beds
Forcibly suggesting you pet her
Soaring through the air onto the couch
Snoozing on the couch
4:30 a.m. sneezing fits
Falling asleep as you scratch the top of her head, behind her ears, on her chest, tummy, neck…
Licking the foundation off my nose to reveal its true Rudolph-like complexion
Frolicking up every driveway and walkway we come across in the neighborhood
Meeting new people
Helping put on her martingale for walkies

Closet doors — those sneaky things look just like a front door, so she waits next to them when she has to go potty
Berkley, the hound dog at her shelter who ate her favorite toy
