Dog of the Week, Frenchies!
This week, we honor Toby (the original) and Alfie (the little brother) as our co-dogs of the week! We have to honor them together, because neither would be okay with the other one being named dog of the week first.
Here we go.
Once upon a time, Dawg Gone It had a French Bulldog who was ALWAYS around for daycare.
This is Toby. Everyone at Dawg Gone It doggie daycare just loves him.
We loved him, and he loved us, and he was a little nut, and life was good.
Toby: Hey, Willie! Stop napping, lets play!
Willie: I dunno, Toby… Hey, I said I dont know!
Toby: Yay, we’re playing!
Willie: ACK! Toby!
Toby: CHEST BUMP! BOO-YAH!
Willie: Okay, fine, you want a piece of… AUUUGHH!
Toby: SWEEP THE LEG!
Willie: Cobra Kai? Really, Toby? Ugh, ick, is that your tongue in my ear?
Toby: WET WILLIE!!! GET IT?!?
Willie: PANT, PANT, PANT…
Toby: Lets do a horsey ride!
Toby had such a big personality that we even had him play on big dog side sometimes if he got to daycare early and there weren’t any little dogs for him to play with yet.
I, Toby, first of my name, dub thee Lady Sophie, Warden of the Purple Stairs and Defender of Big Dog Play Group at Dawg Gone It.
Then he got a mini-me, and we doubled our fun! Heeeeere’s ALFIE!
Good Lord. That is the cutest puppy ever.
You could probably guess that holding Alfie became a pretty popular activity at Dawg Gone It.
Time for an Alfie selfie! Alfie+Selfie=Salfie. Its a Salfie!
Breed: French Bulldogs! Vive la France!

Funny Story: First off, Alfie and Toby have more followers on social media than you do. Just accept it. I mean, you can see why, right?
Alfie and Toby love each other. We find them cuddling in daycare A LOT.
Although Alfie is about the size of a size 7 woman’s shoe, he thinks he’s a Great Dane and will play with anyone of any size! As for Toby, being a social media superstar with his brother Alfie can be hard work, so Tobias hides away from the limelight and hangs out in the corner of group play napping. Actually, Toby used to be a lot crazier before his little brother came along, but with great brother comes great responsibility, and Toby became an instant role model when his little bro came along.
Toby is always taking care of Alfie when they are in daycare. Not that Alfie needs it. He can take care of himself!
Additional Fun Fact: Toby is the only dog mentioned BY NAME in the Dawg Gone It employee handbook. He’s that big a deal.
Okay, one last photo:
Don’t you want to hold me?
YES, YES I DO! (Drops laptop, runs to daycare to hold Alfie.)
