How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

A 90 Pound Puppy? YUP!

in Family on 03/12/15

At almost 6 months our little monkey is now weighing in at a whopping 90 pounds.  Watson, the Blue Great Dane puppy, never tires of chasing his tail, falls down on our hardwood floors more often than Bambi on ice, and is fairly certain he is a lap dog.  Goofy, sensitive, loveable and perhaps growing while he sleeps?

Still not best friends with the cat, but at least he’s figured out the difference between that little white fluff ball and the toys he’s allowed to chew on. Success.  Baby steps!

With this 90 pound puppy life is never going to be dull, and for this I am forever grateful.

      Wow, 90 lbs at 6 mths and he’s massive already. Love the photo. I wonder just how big and heavy Watson will be when he’s fully grown. Enjoy!

      I still think he’s a gorgeous dog/puppy. I have a Shih Tzu who weighs 25 pounds and he rules the house. He also brings life to our house and like you I’m grateful !

      Wow, he has got so big! But he is still adorable. My 6lb tiny toy poodle would look so small next to him!

      I LOVEEEEEE big dogs. They don’t realize they are big & still want to be held like little puppies. Melts my heart

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
