The Adventures of Willie the Wonder Dog
This may be the first part in a multi-part series. We'll have to see.
Today, was our first day back to school and our normal routines since Christmas vacation. It was also our first day to leave Willie unattended for any length of time. I still don't completely trust him in the house alone. So, when I left to take the girls to school, I put him outside making sure to show him where his cozy bed, food and water were. What more could a dog want? Apparently the answer is "his master".
On my way home from picking Grace and Sarah up at pre-school today, I got a call from Rob asking if I was on my way home and saying that he was going to leave Willie inside. "Ok" I said. "Did you come home for lunch?" "No, Willie showed up at school today and I am bringing him home.", he said.
What!?! He explained that a student came in the office and said there was a dog sitting outside the door. The student brought the dog in and he went straight to Rob's office. The student apologized and explained that they were just trying to figure out who's dog it was because it had San Luis Obispo County tags on (that's where Willie is from). Anyway, Rob told the student he knew who's dog it was because it was his.
It looks like Willie found the only place in our fence that does not have a concrete curb under it and dug his way out. Of all the places Willie could go, he went straight to Rob's office. Rob walks to work, so we both think Willie tracked him there. Maybe we're giving him too much credit, but it seems like too much of a coincidence otherwise. Like I said in my previous post, he is Rob's dog all the way.
The best part is that all of the office staff at the High School got to meet Mr. Cobb's new Wiener Dog. I think it's hilarious.

Welcome Willie the Wiener Dog!
Say hello to the newest member of the Cobb Family, Willie the Wiener Dog. Willie is a 7 year old Dachshund who loves attention and sweets (he fits right in around here). Willie was Rob's Aunt Kathy and Uncle John's dog, so he is no stranger to our family. He is one of the only small dogs that Rob and I have ever liked. He is great with the girls and is the snuggliest dog you have ever met.
Willie is definately Rob's dog which is really funny. Anyone who knows my husband well knows that he doesn't like small dogs and he especially doesn't like small inside dogs. "Dogs belong outside" he says. Well, Willie is a small inside dog, but he has stolen Rob's heart. Rob let Willie sleep under the covers with him a few nights ago and I even think I caught him giving Willie a goodbye kiss yesterday. Feel free to tease him ruthlessly (my husband, not Willie) next time you see him. I am getting lots of mileage out of the whole thing at home.
Here he is all snuggled up with his girls and his dog. Aren't they cute?
