Debut of Dogs on Thursday!






I was born an English Bulldog on July 3, 2006 in Biloxi, Mississippii and made my way to my new home on September 11, 2006. The top photo was the first photo sent to my family while they were waiting for me to grow up a little. I was given the name Apollo, but my family has lots of nicknames for me, you will see some of them in the future. Being that I am extremely spoiled and that my dad dotes on me shamelessly, I have a pretty sweet life around here. I like to think the world revolves around me....eating from a spoon to ensure that I don't eat too fast and choke, having my own special chair, special rides in the car AND my dad gets me a toy almost every time he goes to buy my food! I can't play with them much cause I can tear up ANY toy. Sadly, I must take benadryl at each meal cause my kind tends to have allergies. Happily, they keep the tablets in the freezer so that I hardly notice them in my food though sometimes I still manage to spit it out. The big boy around here is my best buddy and I go nuts when he arrives home from school, still hoping he's going to take me with him for a visit-maybe this semester! The young girl around here doesn't do a whole lot with me but I sure like how she pets me so I follow her, block her off and force her to pet me. She too, has fallen for me a bit - teenagers! The mom here does alot with me and has a funny nickname for me, "Fat Bastard", from that Mike Myers movie. She's really good with me, but I get the feeling she wants me to be treated more like a dog - HA - never! Dudley the cat and I play at the staircase occasionally, sure wish I could catch him! He teases me alot. Well, that is just a bit about me. Rightly so, I probably will appear every Thursday on here since the mom says I am His Royal "Hine"ness and with the status I have here, I may as well be seen. I'm still sleeping right now, I will wake up in a couple of hours for breakfast, soaked just so, for my enjoyment. Enjoy my photos!

  6. Hello Apollo, I think you are a handsome brute. I like little guys. All of my closest friends are little guys. I know you are big in heart even though small in stature.

    I also noticed that your Mom writes your posts for you. My Mom also writes my posts. I don't like the way the computer is so warm so I stay away from it. I will look forward to any posts about you in the future.

    You BLoggy friend, Luna

    P.S. I am a girl just in case you would like to know. Actually, I know you know but you know how humans are. They don't know much so I thought I would say it out loud.

  7. Welcome to DOT. Yes, Apollo, the world does revolve around you and with a sweet face like that, it should.
