Each year my folks ask for gift suggestions for what I would like for Christmas. Mostly my lists are practical items like food, books or shoes, but I also like to throw in a wild card like a pony or a sports car just for fun. This year I had seen a decoration that I thought was adorable. It was a light up Christmas puppy. I decided that would be this year’s wild card.
To my surprise, I got the wild card! Christmas Puppy has been a hit with the neighborhood ever since he arrived. So many people have stopped to comment on him. Here he is sitting next to the remains of Pee Man. I tried to get Toby to pose next to Christmas Puppy, but…well, Toby.
Here is Christmas Puppy siting next to our garden pumpkins.
Here is Toby posing with the garden pumpkins.
(I think Christmas Puppy will be Toby’s stand in from now on.)
I don’t know why you are making such a fuss about that thing.
I am your real Christmas puppy!!
Toby isn’t kidding. He is an almost-Christmas birthday boy!
It’s a little early, but Happy Birthday my evil, bitey one!

Happy birthday Toby! He’s much cuter than Christmas puppy (don’t tell him but I want a Christmas puppy too, super cute!!) Chester wouldn’t appreciate it tho!
🥳
😆😆. How would Chester react to a Christmas puppy?
Christmas puppy looks almost real! Happy birthday, Toby!
He looks real enough that I’ve been known to get a bit jealous of him. – Toby
Toffee barks: Habby Barkday, Toby!! At least de Christmas pubby won’t steal your treats!
He’d better not if he knows what’s good for him!
Be very cautious, Tobester. This is how the humans replace you with a realistic doppelganger who doesn’t require as much care, feeding and clean-up. Today you are king; the next day you are runner up to FauxPup. Anyway, happy near birthday, small doggie and a very Merry Christmas to you and your DogMom.
Merry Christmas to you and yours too, Angel Max! ❤️🎄
happy birthday real puppy ! hugsssssssssss !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Arf! Arf! Thank you so much! – Toby
Toby be like…”Who’s that new dude? He doesn’t look like much!” 😉 😀 😛
Hey, Toby…Have you wrestled The New Guy yet?!?! We wish you a hap hap happy birthday! May you get many good things to smell, many good treats to eat, many new places to leave your pee-mail, and many many many gentle pats and rubs! Please know that you are loved! ❤️
(((HUGS))) to your Mom!!! 🙂
PS…Cooper said that The New Guy is kinda’ cute! 😉 HA! 😀
Toby was a bit jealous of Christmas Puppy as I was putting him together. I made sure to give him plenty of love to show him he is still my Number One Awful Pup! 😆
Know what I want for my birthday? Girls! – Toby
Right on, Friend! Me, too! – Cooper
😂
So you’re a Christmas puppy Toby, just like Mr. Darcy who will be one on Christmas Eve…and no, we are not allowed to amalgamate the presents. He can count.
I hope the WP icon works this time as it lost the comment earlier.
I’ve been having some WP issues too. Hopefully they’re worked out now.
Happy Barkday fellow canine!! 🎂 You are right, we absolutely can count. I also expect cake on my birthday as well as Christmas cookies. – Toby.
Mr. Darcy requires a tres leches cake for the birthday and shortbread for Christmas…..the first will be messy……though luckily the cake is about the same colour as him.
Making sure the food is the same color as the eater is so much easier than cleaning! 😆😂
Thnk goodness he is not a Dalmatian.
😂
Oreo cookies if he were?
