Baylor and Tupelo

Hi Everyone! Happy Monday! This has nothing to do with Wally, but their personalities remind me of him. Enjoy!

For the Love of Puppy!

I have been doing a lot of thinking this week about just how much I love Wally, and of course the entire rest of my family and friends. Realistically this would never happen, but it is fun to think about.
I was thinking: what if someone offered me a ton of money, millions or even billions of dollars, and I wouldn't have to do anything or give up anything, except Wally. I absolutely would not accept the offer. Some people say this is naive, and that my answer sounds perfect in only in theory, but not if the opportunity were to present itself.

I disagree.

I know that I am not the only person that would not take the offer, but I also know that there are people who would take the offer in a heartbeat. Certainly there will be people on either extreme that either already have a lot of money or on the opposite end cannot afford to take care of themselves, their family, or their dog. But, in the average situation where people live comfortably but not excessively, where both family and puppy are getting by all right financially, I cannot imagine giving up my little guy to have excess, unnecessary money.

There are many different people in many different situations, with different types of relationships with their dogs, so everything is subjective. But for me, no way. Wally is worth far more to me than the switch from being middle class to being exorbitantly rich. 

What Do You Think?

I can do it! I can do it! Nah, lets lay down!

Wally loves Cowles Mountain! It is a great hiking trail, and although it really isn't a mountain, it does climb to the highest point in SD! Wally goes and goes and goes! And has fun at the top wandering around and taking a break. Most of the time Wally will run the whole way down, but sometimes he just plops down mid-trail, even 2 minutes away from the car. 


Going Up!
"I will Never get tired! Lets Keep Going!"

"Yay! We Made it!... Don't I have a cute tongue?"

"Oh, Boy!  I'm Thirsty!"



Coming Down!
"Whew! "

"Umm.. I'm sorry. You want me to walk MORE?
You have got to be kidding."

Full Speed!

In an effort to get Wally more comfortable when I walk away (He is such a Mama's Boy) Steve holds him while I walk off, and as soon as he is truly calm they come catch up.

Footage of Julian

Wally truly had a blast in the snow! He is usually as fast as Charlie, but not here!
