Dobby - our newest family member!

[cookiesmug]

We just brought Dobby home last Saturday, and he's doing great so far. Now that he's settling into a routine, housebreaking is going along just fine. He's so cute & chubby & playful. In my gallery you can see some pictures taken in the past few days.

Dobby's brief profile -

Age: 14 weeks (as of Monday)
Weight: 10.8 lbs (as of Monday) <- I say Dobby is pudgy, but he thinks it's only baby fat!
Personality: Unsure of new people at first, but once he feels comfortable, he plays nonstop! He's also a little stubborn sometimes, one of the bully traits I guess :rolleyes:
Hobbies: Eat, eat, play, eat some more, and PLAY! (not so much a sleeper as I came to expect of a puppy!)

He's a little delight, although I can't say if Cookie (our Boston) completely agrees with me on that :lol:

Thank you, Judy, Carolyn, and assueowner!

Dobby does eat a lot! The breeder had him on Eukanuba small breed puppy, and I'm transitioning him to Wellness super5 mix puppy. I'm feeding him according to the suggested amount for his size and age, but he always wants more! He's also stealing Cookie's food, talk about a little bully :lol: I'm not sure how strict I should be with the amount of food I give him, he's a little meatball I know, but will it too inhumane to put a baby on a diet? :confused:

I can't imagine a better B-day gift than a Frenchie pup!!! The puppy breath and kisses are just too precious! I hope it all work out for you, Judy!

Dobby and Cookie had been playing NON-STOP this evening, and Dobby is just a little brat! Now they both finally tired out and fast asleep, I finally have a quiet moment for myself. appicon

And yes, we named Dobby after the little "bat-eared" house elf who's fiercely loyal to Harry! He's one of my favorite characters in the HP series :D

Dobby is positively adorable! I love his coloring. I don't think I've ever seen a Frenchie with that coloring, very cool!
