Hello everyone! I thought I'd spam your message board with pics
Submitted by Fatboy on February 7, 2015 - 1:12pmFatboy going to be 5 years old this year. He still has a lot of puppy in him, although I do notice his naps last a little longer these days. I call him my little old man puppy :)
Here loves to sit ther and stare at me while I'm trying to work. Probably wants string cheese or something =P
He loves his tires and doesn't want anyone to play with them when he sleeps. He managed to hold onto this in a new way. Usually he just uses the tires as pillows lol
Just another sunny day in SoCal
Someone got a bath
He kind of looks like this
We're going on our week long cruise vacation in 3 weeks. I'm so excited because it's the Caribbean, but I'm also nervous to leave the Fats behind. This is the first vacation we will have taken without him. He'll be staying in a doggy suite at the PetSmart hotel. He'll do the whole doggy day camp deal and whatnot. He loves it there. Everytime we pick him up from daycamp he is dead asleep by the time we bring him home. He'll be OK right?? Nervous mama over here :)
Fatboy aka Stinky :)

As long as the doggie care place is familiar to him and he's comfortable there, he should be fine. We have a petsitter that comes to our house when we are gone, but we do have 4 to take care of. Have a nice cruise!
Love that boy

SOOOO ador-a-bull !!!! :) Loved all the piks!!!
Oh, and I know how hard it'll be to board him--howeverrrr, the thing we REALLLY liked about PetSmart Hotel versus
other places is that there is NO risk of them being outside too long in the heat, because---they don't go outside! (at least
at the one we used to take Meaty to). Although of course we all WISH our babies could go outside a bit, my fear was
always what it an employee didn't realize that bullies can't be outside in certain temps, and a mistake was made...?..
....
I used to think I was just being neurotic, until this summer, when my sister's Golden Retreiever was out in the heat,
playing, and doing just FINE---barely panting, and it was at least 90 degrees....(Meaty & Sophie were back in our
air-conditioned hotel room--!!!) :-) Of course we knew other breeds can
tolerate summer temps, but I didn't realize they tolerated them THAT well and for so long!!! That is why I'd always be
afraid to board our babies somewhere where they're let outside to play in the summer....I'm sure most/ all
of these places KNOW about the flat-nosed breeds, I've just always been afraid it could still happen....SO,---longgg
way to tell you THAT is why we always felt so good about the indoor PetSmart hotel......Oh, we also liked that it's
staffed 24 hrs/ day!!! We always liked knowing someone was there for Meaty (this was before Sophie)....
...
....Ohhh, and don't forget,
they have an old-fashioned phone you can CALL Fatboy on (my family always cracked up at that!), annnd, you
can arrange for a treat in the evening, one-on-one playtime with a staff member, etc.....all for extra
charges, of course....hee hee! :)
