I just had to dress up as myself to work this week in honor of Halloween! 🎃 Mom said “don’t be a fool of a Took…all the fellowship of the office will just FALL in love with your hobbit Halloween costume this year”…so what do you all think? Am I hobbit enough for the Shire? 🧡🦮🍁

Although it was raining cats and dogs for Pride in the Park today, I just wanted to wish all my LGBTQIA+ friends a wonderful Pride month and celebration from this proud pup! 🏳️‍🌈🐕‍🦺🏳️‍⚧️🌈

All love is love and all colors and relationships are beautiful no matter whom they are between! Keep on sharing your true colors and spreading the love my friends! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎🤍 🌈

I was all sorts of cute and cuddly at work today. Let me tell ya...couch life is pretty grand.

Getting paid in pets, belly rubs, and cookies...I could do this all day. @ Long Grove Center for Emotional Health

My new friend brought me the coolest gift today at work! My first ! What started out as a caticorn is now just Courtney the cat after I chewed off her horn, but she makes a great pillow! Thank you new friend! 🐱🦄🎁🐕‍🦺🛋 @ Long Grove Center for Emotional Health

First day on the job and first time going to work with Mom went great! Made lots of new friends Mom calls her "clients," plus lots of treats, belly rubs, mask kisses, and pets for me! Mom even got me a puppicino from Starbucks after work to celebrate my first day! This therapy dog training is prettyyyy nice! ✅🦮🧠 @ Long Grove Center for Emotional Health

I love how accurate and honest this is. This is me hiding all the dog toys and the messes that come with sharing a home with your partner, 2 kids, 2 cats, anddd especially a puppy! Can anyone else relate?

We're all pretending.
