Today we give back our beloved Coby. It has been over a year and a half, and though he has made a huge amount of progress, we can no longer keep him here. He really needs a yard that he can be in when people leave the house. He is still not used to being inside when people are not around. It isn’t for lack of trying on our part. He just never “got it”. We, being apartment dwellers, only have so much leeway in putting Coby outside when we leave. With winter fast approaching and our eminent move to another state and another apartment, it isn’t fair for us to make him suffer through our frustration with him not being able to be inside when people leave.
We are unsure if we will try again with another dog that is able to be left in the house when we are gone. Giving up Coby is a hurt that another dog will never be able to heal. I just pray that someone comes along quickly who can give him the yard and attention he so deserves.
This blog will be absorbed back into my main blog @ Bucketobulletz.com within the next week.
I did all I could for you Coby. I wanted to keep you forever. I’m so sorry.

He turned 3 on April 1st. Yes I am a bad mommy and I am only now posting about it. It’s also about time to reapply the flea & tick salve. I think we will do it within the next few days, since the smell irks my husband. It smells like herbs and I adore the way it smells, myself. I just don’t like that Coby thinks everything should smell like he does LOL He doesn’t need his rabies shot for another year, though. I was going to take him to the local free clinic for that, but realized I have to wait till next year. I wonder if they would be able to bring it to him in the car since he is still pretty miffed when it comes to other animals.

Funny how anniversaries make you look back to the time when it all began. I just happened to be celebrating Coby’s first year with us this weekend …it was official on Saturday. I was taking a glance back through his papers from when we got him. I only just realized that the second name he was given in his trip to my home was Cobalt. How funny!
He has come a long way in a year. His aggression towards animals has lessened a bit. He is more obedient to us than he used to be… and his anxiety about us leaving him has cut by 25%.
Well here is to a year with Coby! Have a doggy beer on us

If you recall, back in October I had to get some flea control for Coby. We just reapplied today as it has been 3 months and I would hate for him to go without. He has been itching a lot but I haven’t seen any fleas. I figure better safe than sorry. I love how he gets a punk rock hairdo from the oils down the middle of his back haha. I won’t have to reapply till April now.
Tomorrow there is a free rabies clinic in the area, but I am afraid to take him due to his animal aggression issues. I think there is yet another on the 29th closer to my house. Maybe I will wait till then and see if I can get a sort of drive thru service for him.

The Man bought Coby a set of cute squeaky ball toys for Christmas. Each one looks like a ball from a different sport. I think they are going to be a big hit with Coby at Christmas. I don’t think we will wrap them, but I bet you that when he sees the box he will know it’s his. He usually does!

You must obey vampire dog. Seriously, though. He figured out a way for his entire body to fit in that rocking chair with my husband. It has to be the Corgi in him. He swears he is small enough to fit on furniture. This is the third time he has wiggled his way onto someone’s lap. Of course, with the Man here to pet him till his hair gets lose, he couldn’t be happier LOL

Mommy got me a new home…well actually, daddy brought it home when he FINALLY came back from wherever he went. I like that I can still see everything and everyone. I wonder why the floor makes so much noise? Anyway, it’s fun being inside this thing. It’s a great place to just lay and watch the world pass by.
