After years and years of dreaming of and whining about and pleading for a dog, you can probably imagine my excitement to finally have my little guy.
I love Wally! I try not to think of myself as “obsessed” with my pup, but I do have a healthy appreciation for him; he’s insanely cute, very fun, and has a great personality. He was totally worth the wait, as well as the work it takes to keep him happy, healthy, and stimulated.
Prior to bringing him home, most of the advice I read included a simple direction: take plenty of photos! The puppy phase goes by quick, and it’s so fun to look back and compare.
In a few months, Wally could be pushing 80 pounds. Already, we’re seeing him grow and expand and he’s likely doubled in size. What a chonky boy.
So, without further adieu, here’s a photo dump of Wally, in all his adorable and puppy glory.
First: my very favorites
These photos are among my very, very favorites of Wally.

























Pup stuff
These are some of the photos from the very beginning.
























































Out and about
Wally’s active! (Sometimes.) He’s always up for an adventure.





































Cuddle bug
Like his humans, Wally is sometimes quite lazy and prefers to lay around and recharge his batteries. (And chew on all the things!)




























































As you can tell, each day results in a bigger and ever-evolving Wally. I can’t wait to see how much he continues to grow and change. I’ll keep you in the loop!






I reallys love your dog. Everytime look at your Instagram is make me feel warm and sweet especially with your lovely dog. Love Wally xx
And he grows up so fast! 😍😍
SO fast!!
Thank you! He loves you too! Lol, he loves anyone who compliments him. Thank you for your sweet words! xx
I just want to meet him!!
Aw, he is a total sweetie, that face! I remember when our cats were kittens, I took sooooo many photos but I’m glad I did, it’s amazing to look back on them now. You’re right, they grow up so fast! Lisa
Kittens are among the cutest creatures ever! Baby animals are so sweet. Thank you for reading!
These pictures are so cute! I’ve always wanted a pet myself but none of my whining and pleading has worked so far haha. I can’t wait to see the updates- he grows so fast!
I know how that goes, lol! It took a long, long time before we got a pet. Thank you for reading and commenting!
I can’t believe how big he’s got in such a short space of time! When he was younger, his face was the image of my dog’s when he was little but they’re literally so different. I can’t wait to see what he’ll look like in a couple of months!
I definitely saw the similarities! How interesting are dogs?! I love the progression. Thank you so much for reading and commenting!
