Getting ready for Halloween

I finally got Soba a smaller size costume. This one fits much better. He looks so cute as a pumpkin! He STILL looked sad and depressed when I put this on him. Look at his sad face!








After he was fed up with me laughing, Soba tried to shake the pumpkin off AGAIN. This time he couldn't get it off. He started to whine. Halloween will be interesting when he has to keep the costume on for a few hours.









I got this new toy from Old Navy for Soba. We thought he needed another "quiet" toy to play with besides his lobster. Isn't it a cute piggy? He loves to nible on the ears. YUM! Pig's ears...










I think Soba is playing too much with his new toy. He is starting to look like the piggy!!!












Wade usually take Soba out for a walk in the morning. Here he is waiting for Wade to come down from upstairs to take him out. It's funny that he can stand there looking at the door and waiting patiently until one of us comes.

By popular request.... Here are more pics of Soba!

We got Soba this new toy from Ikea. He sometimes gets his paws caught in the two holes when he retrives the toy after we throw it. Sometimes he'll go skidding across the floor on top of this toy which looks like he is surfing in our living room.









Who can resist this cute face? Yes, we are suckers. Now that Soba is pretty much potty trained, we are letting him roam upstairs WITH SUPERVISION. He loves sniffing around in each room. Hope he decides to not leave us any early Christmas presents.








There is always an itch that Soba can't reach.













Soba has a habit of placing toys he retrives on people's laps so he can "play with you". Got to be careful of his sharp puppy teeth when he does this. I've gotten in his way a few times, and all I can say is O-U-C-H.









Happy Halloween! Do you like his pumpkin costume? I thought it was hilarious, but he didn't like it. He had his head down and looked sad and unhappy. He barely moved and then he decided he had enough. So, he shook the costume off. I need to exchange it for smaller size so it stays on.




































This is what happened to Soba's favorite lobster toy after Roxie (our friend's yellow lab) and Soba played with it. Mr. Lobster was violently attacked. He lost one of his claws and his guts were spilling out. We buried him (in the trash) and now he is resting in peace. Good thing we were able to go to Target and buy Soba a Lobster 2.0.


















Wade & Soba practicing for the next season of Dancing with the Stars. We always thought dogs hate to stand on their hind feet. Not our Soba!

































When Soba was smaller, he use to be afraid of the gloves Wade uses to pick him up when he doesn't want to be picked up. He would run away, but NOW he runs towards the gloves. When we have a hard time getting him to come into the house, we pull out the gloves. He likes to fight and bite the gloves. The gloves are also another way to work off his puppy energy. We "glove" him and he loves it!
