Eli the night before his first day at school
So this is a special picture Eli took for his favorite cousin, Kristen.

Now on to other pictures of Eli.
His new lookout tower.




More yard pictures.


My tomato plant.

I tried to grow heirloom tomatoes but something keeps eating them and only a few have matured. I will stick to regular ones next year.
I’m going to send him some fruit roll-ups and juice boxes for those long days away from his sweet parents. also, i see no reason why getting a dog can’t also mean you got someone to clean your house – cats are peeing in toilets these days. i’m sure eli could take a moment from his busy schedule of looking out the window and being adorable (and eating your plants – MYSTERY SOLVED) to scrub a dish or two.
I think you are right. He should earn his keep. He is learning how to vacuum the floor with his mouth and training to be a guard dog. Although, right now his means of attack is licking and begging for attention.
looks like I will be having a record harvest of tomatoes, also having cucumbers and peppers for the first time. I will make sure we bring some up to Boston.
By the way what kind of treats is Eli partial to and toys also?
Eli is partial to rawhide, bully sticks, and things with string. His favorite is just plain old petting.
