KA-BOOM! Bat Dog is here!

Kingsley's first Halloween debut is here.

This year I broke down and got him a doggy costume, and while I wanted to opt for a turtle, his Pops convinced me that Batman was way cooler.

Train watching

While Kingsley was enjoying a brisk day at a new dog park, he caught sight of his first train!

Sleepyhead

Unlike other dogs, Kings always seems to be especially lethargic in the morning. I've got to wonder, does he ever sleep during the night? Also, here's a question to other dog owners out there... Do your dogs rest their heads on pillows too? It always cracks me up when I've found that he has specifically sought out a pillow.

Squirrel Watching

While our favorite, lovable Wheaten has grown increasingly snuggly in his old(er) age, this picture proves that he still has it in him. If only he were a little more nimble, that squirrel could have been his!

Debate Night

Kingsley listening intently.

Pittsburgh Pride

As Kingsley mentally prepares for the game, he cozies up on the couch with our Steelers blanket. I swear we found him this way.

A Pumpkin Kind of Day

While nearing his 3rd Birthday, Kingsley's recent encounter with a pumpkin may have been his first! Unfortunately he quickly began chewing on the stem so the pumpkin was soon moved out of reach.

Nap Time on the Guest Bed

Sometimes Kingsley gets confused about which bed to sleep on, or maybe he just likes to switch it up. Here he is napping in the guest bedroom!

Kingsley's Close Encounter

It wouldn't be a trip to the country without a close-up encounter with wildlife. This time Kingsley had to conquer his fears and look squarely into the face of a deer head. Scary stuff for the little buddy!!

What a Good Helper

Kingsley was super helpful today as his Mama folded the laundry. And while his paws are, realistically, not the cleanest things on earth, how could anyone get upset at this picture perfect moment!

Late Night Playtime

One of Kingsley's funnier traits is that he likes to get in some good playtime just before bedtime. The moment we get into bed, Kingsley's right there with us but with a bone or toy in his mouth and ready to play. And while it's generally cute for about ten minutes, we end up having to take it away because of all the shaking and gnawing noises. Here he is loving his toy from last night. 

Welcome Home, Pops!

Unfortunately, Kingsley spent most of the day alone but when we did finally get home, boy was he excited!!

Pooped After A Fun Playdate

Kingsley had a super fun day playing with one of his fav puppy pals, Ruby. Now, after several hours of play, he's winding down and ready to relax.

Kitty Watching

Having just seen a neighborhood black cat, Kingsley's dog instincts kick-in and he stands alert. One must question though, would he become a fearless predator or does he just want to be friends? My vote is on the latter!

A Chevron Kind of Boy

With some newfound time on my hands, I've dusted off the sewing machine and have started some "home decor" projects. Looks like Kingsley approves of the new pillows!

His New Favorite Spot

Having recently moved into a larger abode, sometimes I lose track of where the buddy is in the house. It doesn't take long, however, to find him resting under the dining room table. This Wheatie is one tired pup!
