Happy Friday friends! ❤️

We started our morning in South Carolina and we’re still trucking along on our way home! We’re going to land in New Jersey around 11:30 tonight, and then we’ll have a lot 5-6 hours of driving till we’re back home with Grandma, Duster and Maggie!

Today has been a long day in the car, so we’re eager to reach our hotel, eat some dinner, and cuddle up for a good nights sleep! Mama says me and Chowder are such angels on long car rides though and she’s so proud of us for being such good babies all snuggled up in the back seat!

Daddy has been such a great driver too so that makes it easy for me and Chowder to relax and get comfy! We’ve had so much fun on our trip, but we’re eager to get back to our own yard to go potty, our own bed to sleep in, and of course we’re eager to see Maggie, Duster and Grandma!

I hope you all had a wonderful Friday today and have a great weekend ahead! Goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! We wuvs you all bunches! 🥰🐾❤️

Hi friends! ❤️

We’re still on the road, we left Miami around noon today and we’ll be landing in northern South Carolina just before midnight for a good nights sleep before we get back on the road!

I hope you’re all having a great end of the week! Me and Chowder are just relaxing in the back seat dozing off while Daddy drives, so I figured I’d say goodnight since we’ll just be eating dinner and going to bed once we get to our hotel!

Goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams and we wuvs you all bunches! ❤️🐾🥰

Another laid back day before we start heading home tomorrow! ❤️

We stopped at Bass Pro Shops in Miami to take a couple pictures with this giant shark, and Mama and Daddy got me and Chowder some new toys! We got a frog, and a monkey toy and when we got back to the hotel Daddy played some tug of war with us! Chowder and me also did a little wrestling and she was biting me with little love bites all over my face, ears, tail, thighs and feet! She’s very mouthy, but she’s very gentle so I don’t mind!

Now we’re just cuddled up in bed while we wait for dinner time, and we’re going to try to get a good nights sleep before we start the drive home tomorrow! We’re expecting to be back home on either Saturday or Sunday, but most likely Sunday, then it’s back to work for Daddy on Monday!

We’re missing Duster, Grandma, and Maggie a lot, but Grandma has been giving Mama lots of updates on everyone and we’re happy to say Duster has been eating all his wet food dinner and getting plenty of treats for Grandma! Maggie also got a couple new toys while we were gone so she’s been having lots of fun playing and being the only dog of the house! We can’t wait to see them when we get home and tell them all about our trip!

Anyways, goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! We wuvs you all bunches! Have a wonderful Thursday tomorrow! ❤️🐾🥰

Hi friends! ❤️

As our family honeymoon trip winds down to an end we’re taking the last couple days to rest and relax before the long drive home, so today was pretty uneventful aside from lots of cuddling and naps!

I wanted to share some pictures from last Saturday when we went to Key West! This was at the dog beach where I found a small coconut to chew on, a raw bar that we stopped at for lunch, and at Fort Zachary Taylor state park where we explored around! I still have the pictures from the aquarium to share and those are coming soon!

The wildlife down here has been so fun to see! We saw giant iguanas, tons of native sea birds and a bunch of chickens, little lizards, snails, and one of our favorite things to see was the beautiful key deer on our drive through the keys! They’re so little and cute, and we even saw a Mama with a tiny baby but my Mama wasn’t able to get a picture! They’re sooo cute though!

Anyways, goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! We wuvs you all bunches! Have a wonderful Wednesday tomorrow! ❤️🐾🥰

Today’s adventure? An airboat tour through the Everglades! Coopertown Airboat Tour Everglades welcomed us on one of their pawesome dog friendly airboat rides and we had an absolute blast! It was pretty hot, and a little loud, but Mama and Daddy stopped beforehand and got me and Chowder these head covers to protect our ears from the wind, and they dipped them in water so they helped keep us cool! We didn’t see any alligators, but we saw plenty or really cool birds, fish, and even a giant turtle!

Now we’re back at our hotel in downtown Miami, and although the room is very nice, there’s hardly any spots to go potty outside so me and Chowder are having to get creative! There’s also lots of loud cars outside, which Chowder is doing okay with but it’s making me nervous, so I’ll happily be spending plenty of time in the nice comfy bed where I feel safe in between adventures!

I hope you’re all having a wonderful day today! Goodnight and sweet puppy dreams and we wuvs you all bunches! ❤️🐾🥰

Today was a bit rainy, and very windy, so we had a pretty laid back day! We drove from the keys to Miami, and now we’ll be here for a few days just taking it easy and relaxing for the last few days of our vacation before we start heading home! We even got to stop at a farmers market in the keys this morning which was pretty cool! ❤️

Last night for my gotcha day we went out to eat, and Mama got me and Chowder some sweet potato waffle fries! Mama and Daddy also got really big dinners, so they took the leftovers home, rinsed off the seasoning, and then me and Chowder got a half a filet of grouper, and almost an entire spiny lobster tail mixed with our dinner along with even more sweet potato fries! It was a great dinner to celebrate my gotcha day!

Now that we’re in Miami we’re heading to dinner, and since we’re all pretty tired we’re going to have a quiet night together before we head to our next hotel in Miami tomorrow! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! We wuvs you all bunches! 🥰🐾❤️

Not my usual vacation post today, but today is a very special day! Today is my Gotcha Day! That means 4 years ago today, I met Mama and Daddy! ❤️

While it was the best day ever meeting Mama and Daddy, it was also the beginning of my journey to getting healthy! I have a long, long post pinned on my page about my health journey, so I’m not going to go into that in this post, but it was a long road to get to where I am today!

I can’t believe it’s been 4 years already, and my life has completely changed for the better since meeting Mama and Daddy! Today we celebrated by exploring around Key West, visiting the dog beach, going to the aquarium which was sooo fun, and we went out to lunch where me and Chowder got some French fries! We even got to see some Key Deer and I found a small coconut that I chewed up on the beach, but it didn’t taste that great!

Tonight Mama and Daddy are taking us out to eat again, and the restaurant tonight has sweet potato fries so Mama is going to get us a big order of them! We don’t usually get this much unhealthy snacks, but we’re on vacation, and it’s my gotcha day, so we have to celebrate! Mama says she might even give me some of her seafood depending on what she gets!

Time sure does fly when you’re having fun, and these past 4 years have been so incredible! With my big CT scan for the lump on my jaw coming up when we get back home we don’t know what the future holds, but I know Mama and Daddy will always do anything and everything for me that they can!

Please give your pup an extra treat, or maybe even a french fry, to help celebrate my gotcha day with me! I’ll post the pictures from our adventures today very soon, but I just wanted to share a couple puppy pictures from 4 years ago when I was just a little meatball! ❤️

Goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! We wuvs you all bunches! ❤️🐾🥰

We had such a great time last night at Kiki's Sandbar & Grille with the dog loving crew Dogs of KiKi's Sandbar who treated us like family! The staff took turns coming over to say hello, give us love, and of course tell us how cute we were! This was such a unique tropical sandbar restaurant and we can’t way to hopefully go back soon ❤️ Thank you to everyone who works at Kiki’s who made us feel so welcomed! 🐾❤️

🌴THIS IS BIG!🌴

Chonk The Bully and his sweet sister Chowder made the trip all the way from New Hampshire to the Florida Keys! 🐶❤️

A few months ago, we extended an invitation for these two to come visit Kiki’s, and guess what?! Mom and Dad decided to celebrate their HONEYMOON right here in the Keys! 🥂☀️ Talk about making memories in paradise❣️

We are so honored they chose to stop by and spend some of their special trip with us. We welcomed them with open arms, plenty of love, an official spot in our ever-growing family of Dogs of Kiki’s! 🐾🌊

Happy Friday friends! ❤️

Here’s some pictures from our adventures around the keys today! We went to Sombrero beach, and did lots of shopping around some gift shops! Mama and Daddy even stopped for Wendy’s and even though chicken nuggets arnt allowed on my new diet we were able to have some french fries!

We’re at a new resort tonight, which is beautiful, and on Sunday we head to Miami! Mama says we’re going to the aquarium tomorrow and I can’t wait! Tonight we’re about to go out to dinner and me and Chowder are really hoping this restaurant has some sweet potato fries for us! ❤️

I hope you’re all having a great Friday evening! Have a wonderful weekend friends! Goodnight and sweet puppy dreams and we wuvs you bunches! 🥰🐾❤️

The Florida Keys have been beautiful so far! It was a long drive to get here, but so worth it! ❤️

We checked into our resort, explored around, then Mama and Daddy took us out to eat! This was Chowders first time going out to eat, and she did great! She laid down under Daddy’s chair while I laid under the table between him and Mama! Mama got us some sweet potato waffle fries, which of course were delicious! We even got to see the sun setting over the ocean which was gorgeous, especially since over in the north east of New Hampshire we only ever get ocean sun rises!

Tomorrow we head to another resort further into the keys and we’ll be there for two nights and get to explore around a little more! I hope you’re all having a wonderful week so far! Goodnight everyone and sweet puppy dreams! ❤️🐾🥰
