Meet Dumbo

[Alysser]

No, he's not mine, but he IS mine for a week! His family went on vacation and we're watching him. Dumbo is an 8 year old papillion. He's the biggest sweetie and he's playful! I'll have plenty more pics but heres one I took from my phone. We're also watching his cat sister, Cali. He just dropped the ball at my feet LOL, he's adorable.

Oh yes, he is adorable! Have fun!

[luvofallhorses]

He's a doll Alyssa! Have fun watching him!

[Karen]

Aww, have fun with him! There was a 3-legged Papillion down the street from me growing up and he was a busy, busy pup!

He's so cute! And what a name! Hehehe

[Alysser]

Thanks guys! He is so much fun, it's really great to have a dog again Cali, the cat, was scaring us a little because she was hiding under the couch but after luring her out I got her used to us, now she's sleeping on the couch downstairs LOL. She's a 10 month old kitten. I will post pics of her too. Dumbo will be sleeping in my room tonight. Some more pics:

This is him on a walk.

I do not have huge ears.

Smiley boy!

Oh my goodness, he is adorable! I love the markings on his nose, black and pink, so symmetrical. That's great you get to watch him (and the kitten) for a week. It will get you ready for your own doggie when you get it.

He is adorable! Have fun watching him.

He's really cute! Looks like you and him both are having lots of fun! Your phone takes really good pics! What kind of phone do you have?

[Casper]

What a cute little guy!
Glad to hear you are having a good time petsitting him. I bet he is getting some extra spoiling, eh? ;-)

[cassiesmom]

He's soooo cute! My upstairs neighbor has a Papillon - I just love her. They spend most of the year at their home in Michigan but I love to hug and pet her when they are in town.

Thanks again guys! This little guy is awesome. He's a velcro dog for sure, he likes me but he LOVES my mom and dad. He slept with them last night LOL, BUT I wasn't mad since Cali(the kitty!) slept with me last night. She came in my room and hopped on my bed. I thought she was terrified to be here but apparently not. She's sleeping right next to me in her bed right now I will of course post pics of her tomorrow.

I took Dumbo for 2 longish walks today, he never gets tuckered out enough though. Me and him were conversing I will post pics of both of them tomorrow. We're also caring for an ancient black and white cat named Michu, but he's apparently very nasty and shy so he isn't here. His owner says he prefers the house to himself, we're going every other day to feed him/clean up his messes/etc.

By the way, Lute I have the Samsung Rant. I didn't mention the 2nd post was not pics from my phone XD Sorry for the mix up! I took that with my camera.

[Dumbo ...]

And what a name! Hehehe

Poor Guy sure got the short stick when they drew names!

Maybe try calling him "DB" (for DumBo) to see if he *smiles* more.

[Daisy and Delilah]

What a cutie pie!!! He's adorable and I can tell he's alot of fun too!! Thanks for sharing him with us, Alyssa.

[Alysser]

I have to update on these guys!

They've been so much fun! Dumbo is such a good boy, he knows all his commands and he loves to play. He LOVES walks and if you ask him if he has to pee he goes to the door if he does. I even used him for a project on dog behavorial testing in shelters for my FFA Team Demo, which worked out beautifully! He's literally so well behaved. He's been sleeping with me most of the time and he doesn't even bother you to go out during the night.

Cali on the other hand, is a handful, but what can you expect from a 11 month old kitten? If you don't let her in your room at night she meows all night, and doesn't even sleep she plays with my fish so I don't let her in my room. She's so playful, she loves anything that dangles and moves. She LOVES the laser pointer and so does dumbo. I have some pics of both:

There's the pretty girl sleeping.

By the way, his name was in no way a mean reference. It was because of his huge ears LOL.
