We always joke that Phoebe got a “glow-up” thanks to me coming into her life: new bed, new toys, and especially, and most noticeably, new haircuts.
Inspired by Elisabeth from The Dirigible Plum’s A Year in Pictures, featuring her very photogenic cat, Pickles, I wanted to do the same with Phoebe.
Phoebe is a fluffy toy golden doodle who loves nothing more than to snuggle up on whoever’s closest, lick whatever part of their body she can get her tongue on, and roll over to enjoy the belly rubs.
When I looked at my camera roll, I found 674 photos of Phoebe—and that’s been edited down! Phoebe’s only been in my life for a year and a half, but she feels like she’s been part of it for way longer. As my dad says, I “finally got the dog I always wanted.” (My childhood dog, Gracie, was the best, but to my dismay, she hated to snuggle.)
So, I present to you: A Year in Pictures aka 12 Months of Phoebe (plus 2 extra photos on either end). I’ll let you be the one to decide if she’s had a glow-up.
