🐾rescued super-mutt📍upstate NY 🎂Sept 14, 2020 ⭐️new friends, zoomies, sticks, my carrot, and staring into your soul with my blue eyes 🧑🧒🧒
@goodboyfinley
While we may lose this community space I don’t want to lose my friends too!
I’m also on (and more active at) Instagram and recently flying in the big blue sky! Same username as here: rorythereddog
TODAY IS MY GOTCHA DAY!!
2 years ago today the person who was going to adopt me didn’t show up so they called my humom who had also applied & asked if she was still interested; she was!
Two years of love and adventures later and we’re both so grateful ♥️

No, don’t do it! My humom explained that those are for Santa Paws! He’s going to come visit us tonight and bring us toys & treats so I shouldn’t bark, possibly scaring him. Those cookies are to thank him & make sure he has the energy to make it to the next good-dog’s house too
THERE WERE EASTER EGGS IN OUR YARD WITH DIFFERENT DOG TREATS INSIDE! 🐰 🥚 WE GOT TO RUN AROUND THE YARD SNIFFING THRM OUT!

Went to day camp today and played with my frens! Humom took of video of me in my fancy ride 🚲 the whole way home. I wanted to share it all with you but she said 30 seconds was enough for people; hope you like it.

TODAY IS MY GOTCHA DAY!
3 yrs ago a nice human came to see me, we played, & then she took me with her to a place called ‘forever home’! Someone else was supposed to meet me earlier but didn’t show up (rude). Humom says she’s very lucky that I ended up her good-boy!
#DogOfTwitter
I’ve accepted that the little gremlin-dog is here to stay so I might as well try to be friends. He’s not much of a tugger now, but I’ve been reassured that he’ll improve.
#DogsOfTwitter
I’VE BEEN TRICKED! 😒
The human very excitedly asked me “Rory do you want to take a bath?!” And I wasn’t sure exactly what she was proposing but she was so enthusiastic I figured it had to be something great.

Remember a couple of weeks ago when I mentioned we met up with a fren who wanted to take my picture?
They shared some with us! 🧵

Today was my day with humom! Finley went to day camp so it was just her and I! I don’t always ask for attention, but I certainly enjoy it. 🧵
#DogsOfTwitter
Humom left yesterday and came home with a little brother! He’s very small (and bitey) and I’m still getting used to him, but the human says we’ll be good friends in time.
#DogsOfTwitter
Rory and I decided our family could use another another member. He joined us a little later than planned, but we’re happy to introduce Finley (
@goodboyfinley
) (a good Irish name like Rory), a 11-week old rescue all the way from Texas!

It was a nice day outside so I took Finley & the human to the park! There were some dogs there, but not as many as we expected. The tiny humans don’t have school this week so people may have come earlier in the day.
Their loss though, because Finley wore his carrot outfit! 🥕 🧵
I’ve been reunited with my carrot! 🥕
It suffered an injury a couple of weeks ago and has been recovering before having surgical repair.
So happy to have it back!

#LoveMyCarrot
I took the human to the park today and we walked the whole thing!
When we got there something called a “snow squall” had just blown in ❄️
The human always says I’m such a good boy I thought it appropriate to try and make a snow angel 😇

Today was great! It was beautiful weather ☀️, we had a nice walk, and Finley and I both did great in our agility classes! 🧵

Merry Christmas from me and the little guy! Santa Paws stopped by last night and left me presents! My gift to Finley was that I let him on the chair with me.

Since I found my human, almost 3 years now, she reminds me that sticks and other outside things need to remain outside. So imagine my surprise when I come in from inspecting the yard and she’s put A WHOLE TREE 🌲 in the living room?! 😲
Today was MY day with the human! She was looking forward to a good “no meeting Wednesday” but ended up getting caught in an urgent task. I still got my solo walkie though!
#DogsOfTwitter
The human and I went on something called a stand-up paddle board today! I was a good boy and sat or laid in front of her most of the time. Lots of people smiled when they saw me

Not much to share tonight. The human has been very busy at work and seems to be having a hard time. I’m being a good boy and keeping her company, letting her hug me, and giving her kisses when she cries. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
#DogsOfTwitter
Hey so if you’re on Instagram and not already following me would you consider it? (I’m
@rorythereddog
there too)
Zippypaws, who MAKES MY CARROT 🥕 is accepting applications for brand ambassadors but you need to have over 500 followers; I only have 455 right now.
The human said something about an eclipse today so we put on our doggles and went outside!
Humom had better glasses but that’s only because she’s dumb enough to look at the sun; we’re smarter than that! 🧵
#DogsOfTwitter
#Eclipse
Hello and happy Friday! It was another day where the human worked and I thought she had forgotten about walkies. But then she closed her light screen and said “let’s go to the park boys!”
#DogsOfTwitter
I HAVE BEEN AMBUSHED BY A SURPRISE BATH! 🛁
The human says I have to be clean and smell pretty for Santa and my grandpawrents 😑
Baths are supposed to happen in the evening when I have been appropriately prepared!
#DogsOfTwitter
#Bathtime
I know my humom loves me, but I’m not sure how much anymore! Major crimes against good-boys have occurred and continue everyday. She says it under the ruse of me being on a diet, but seems too cruel to me.
#DogsOfTwitter
#SecondDinner
I went to day camp today and we had a first day of spring treat! Ice cream!🍦
Because I wasn’t home there are no pictures from today (go see Finley for that)
However, I don’t think I’ve mentioned that I love you lately so here’s my message for you 💙 🩵 💚
I MET SANTA PAWS YESTERDAY! I was a little bit nervous, but he reassured me that I have been a good boy this year and would be getting presents 🎁
#DogsOfTwitter
#Santa
Another BORING Saturday, and once again the human blamed the weather. But she said we have the same plans for tomorrow as last Sunday: Finley has puppy-class and then he’ll take a nap while humom and go for a walk in the park! I like that plan!
#DogsOfTwitter
I was very concerned there would be no walkies today when it was getting late and we hadn’t gone yet. I should have had more trust in humom though, because she did even better and brought us to the park!
#DogsOfTwitter
It was a rather uneventful day: Finley went to day camp, the human worked, and I got wet on our walk 🌧️
My stomach is upset (again); Humom says I’m “sensitive.” At least I get a special dinner
#DogsOfTwitter
The human went to the grocery store tonight and was dismayed they were out of the carrots she wanted for making soup 🥣
I offered her mine 🥕 but she said it’s not the same.
Hello again, I’ve had many responses to my Valentines’s proposal. If you’re still unsure I’ve made this video to help you with the decision.
Unfortunately I do need to know by tomorrow 💌

Happy Thursday! I had a pretty good day. In the morning I took the human for a walk in the chilly air & enjoyed some snowy sniffs. Then I had agility class and did really well!
#DogsOfTwitter
Hello again! Sorry we’ve been quiet, but we are still here! Today I helped the humans finish closing off the shed. She says this means there won’t be any more stripey-cats visiting (not sure how to feel about that)
#DogsOfTwitter
Today I discovered that sometimes I can get Finley to stop trying to climb on me and harness that energy for useful things, like playing tug!
#DogsOfTwitter
The human spent a lot of time in the kitchen last night. Finley and I were a bit sad because we felt like we were being ignored. I was reminded again I need to have more trust in humom; she was making us biscuits!
Peanut butter, pumpkin, and carrots! 🥕
#DogsOfTwitter
#Yummy
Happy Friday! My fren Bailey is over for a sleepover tonight cause her humans are having a pawty. We’re having our own fun at my house, especially now that she’s a bit older now and not quite as crazy!

I was rescued about 3 years ago and my human says I’m the best boy because I love everyone, I’m very smart, and up to join humom on all sorts of adventures. Recently I also became a big brother and am very patient with the crazy puppy!
No big adventures today but we did do a lot of playing around the yard & house! This is right before Humom took out the grass-eater AGAIN!
#DogsOfTwitter
I helped the human shovel the driveway this morning! The pesky “shovel” keeps stealing all the snow but I make sure to yell at it! Then I took Finley and the human for a walk around the neighborhood.
#DogsOfTwitter
#Snow
I took the human and Finley for a walk today and did my best to entertain him while the human worked.
I hear he’s going to day camp tomorrow. I hope some of the dogs help teach him some manners, but if anypup is mean I’ll give them a stern bark!
#DogsOfTwitter
#BigBrother
Many of you pointed out yesterday how unfair it was that the human had pancakes 🥞 with friends and did not bring any home for me and Finley!
We spoke to her about this injustice and are happy to report it has been rectified! She made us a special pancake with bacon bits! 🥓
Not much to share today. Finley went to day camp so it was just the human and me 😊 After the craziness of the weekend it was nice to have some quiet time!
#DogsOfTwitter
WE WENT TO A BIG FIELD OF SUNFLOWERS TODAY! 🌻
There’s a brewery near my agility class that has this big field that we can walk through and sometimes they let you pick them

CONGRATULATIONS TO THIS WONDERFUL GOOD-GIRL & HER VERY LUCKY NEW FAMILY! 🎉
(My human and I are going to miss her sweet face but are happy to know she’s found her forever home!)
The weather is very yucky here today (snow & ice!) so in honor of
#NationalPuppyDay
I’m going to show you some of my baby pictures and how I met my forever family! Most have never been shared before! 🧵
#DogsOfTwitter
Did you see I had some pictures with my carrots this weekend?!🥕 They weren’t real but a few people stopped and tried to see what was for sale! 🧵
#DogsOfTwitter

WHAT THE H*CK IS THIS?! ❄️
So far I’ve established it’s: cold, flavorless, and fluffy.
Rory says it’s safe to play in and eat. I will continue to examine throughout the day

It’s probably a little late but I was wondering if you might want to be my valentine? It’s coming up & the human hasn’t told me if we have plans or not.
Don’t worry, you don’t need an answer now. I’m making a video to help you decide ♥️

The human took the day off from work and we went to the mountains! The leaves 🍁 aren’t quite at peak yet (maybe this weekend) but it was nice to have the trails mostly to ourselves 🧵
#DogsOfTwitter
#UpstateNY
#FallColors
At a rest stop & it’s nice to get out and stretch my legs. Not to mention this place has all sorts of new sniffs! The human says we’re only about 3 1/2 hours away now. I’m not quite sure what that means but she sounds happy about it so I guess it’s a good thing.
#DogsOfTwitter
I took the human and Finley for a walk this afternoon. It was a nice day outside! And now that Finley is a bit bigger I decided it was time to go to the other neighborhoods. 🧵
#DogsOfTwitter
#Walkies
Hello! I heard something about a ball being dropped last night. Please tell me more, I’m interested! How does one get such a ball? Does it squeak?
Also, why are you telling me now, after the ball-drop?!
#DogsOfTwitter
#HappyNewYear
At day camp today they took my pawtrait for Thanksgiving.
I’m not telling the human what I got up to at camp, but she said it must have been very exciting as I slept for two hours once I got home!
#DogsOfTwitter
We went to the park today! Humom isn’t feeling well so we had a late snooze, but a walk always helps! We saw some frens at the park and enjoyed the sniffs
#DogsOfTwitter
#ParkWalk
The human took the day off from work and we went for a hike. We saw a waterfall, and lots of rocky cliffs, and a lake! I climbed up and down rocks and shared snacks with my human.
#DogsOfTwitter
#HikingDog
When I got home from day camp I overheard humom on the phone saying I seemed “off” lately, and it was making her sad because she didn’t know why. So I showed her what would make me happy in that moment; my green ball!
#DogsOfTwitter
I went to agility today and did well! Here’s me and humoms last run of the day. Sometimes towards the end of class the human brings my carrot out 🥕 to help keep me motivated!

Mom!
Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom!
Look how fast I’m running!
Look how quick I’m running!
Look how fast I’m going!
And now I’m coming innnnnnn for a kiss…
Muh 😘
#DogsOfTwitter
In my annoyance about being woken up earlier I had forgotten that when the clocks change, it’s lighter outside when the human is done “working” and sometimes we can go to the park!
