Albus Photo - Sleeping on his bed

As many of the photos you have seen of Albus, it is stressed that he is not on his actual things. 
When he is sleeping, he usual is on the couch. 
When he is in the kitchen he is normally on his rug.
When he is in a room with a bed (other than his) he will go on that instead of the floor.
Sometimes, though, he actually goes on his bed. It is a very comfortable dog bed with a lot of room!



So, in this photo Albus is sleeping on his bed. If you have a dog, then you know that they love to sleep. As having a couple dogs before Albus, I knew that dogs loved to sleep. Also, many of my relatives have dogs that... love to sleep!Albus was no different, he loves to sleep. Albus normally sleeps during the day, so he has all his energy back for the evening. After he gets wiped out from that by night, he is full of energy again in the morning!

Albus has Escaped! ...

Albus is at home safely now. :-)

Anyway, one night after I had gone to sleep, Albus was making a lot of noise............. Our windows were open this whole time, with a screen on the outside. So, Albus decided it would be a great idea to just go right through the screen out to the front yard! He was gone for probably around 30 minutes until noticed. So, after driving a while, Albus was found near our home! When called, he just returned through the garage.
Now, Albus was home and safe.............
But, he had some sort of poop all over him. He must to have rolled in some sort of something! So, Albus got a bath, and he is a dog that doesn't behave in that bath! His fur is so soft after baths, though. He sheds even more after baths, though, so in the morning, there was 'Albus Hair' everywhere!

After going through the front window's screen, roaming around outside at night, getting poop on him, returning home when called, and getting a bath, Albus was all fine in the morning!

Albus Video - Comes Charging At Me



Here is our Albus video of the week! "Dog comes charging at me"
This video was taken recently, Albus kept going up and down the steps and was barking, so I started to record. He was downstairs at first and was barking. Then, he came running up the steps..... He came straight in the room, jumped up the bed, and barely stopped before hitting me! He then proceeded to bark a little bit and run back downstairs!

Here is the description from youtube: "My funny dog, Albus, came charging at me one day...
Albus was down stairs barking, then came running up the steps and jumped up on the bed right at me! He also kept barking for a little bit :)"

Albus shows how energetic he is in this video!

Albus Photo - Looking out the Window


Albus is looking out the window.
He looks out the window for many reasons... People outside, dogs, stray animals - like cats, rabbits, etc.
When he sees other dogs he normally cries and/or cry barks. He wants to be out with them!
When he sees stray animals he normally cries and wants to go play with them!
When he sees people playing he will sometimes bark, but normally just watches with his tail wagging!
Albus loves lookin' out the window!

Albus Photo - Sniffing Rug



Albus on 'his' little mat in the kitchen. It is near the sink in the kitchen and whenever something with food is going on, he will lay there! He thinks it is his, even though it is for human feet :)
In this photo, he is sniffing the rug it looks like.

Have your dogs ever made random rugs "their own"?

Albus Photo - Wanting Belly Rub


Albus is lying down on his side, with his head up and his front right paw sticking up... That could only mean one thing, he wants a belly rub!
Albus almost always wants belly rubs, he enjoys them very much. As a dog, it is hard for him to scratch his belly, so sometimes he gets an itch on his belly and can't do anything about it!

Albus Photo - Scratching eye


Albus has always had 'the itchies'. I always thought, for a dog, he gets a lot of itches. Many times, he licks or nibbles on his paws, or his arms/legs... And many other times he is scratching his head with his back paws! Sometimes he will swipe at his head with his front paws, too.
When Albus scratches with his back paw, his itches are normal in or right around his ear, his eyes, top of his head, around his snout, or a couple inches back from the ears. In this photo it seemed more like an eye itch!
