The Dude comes from humble beginnings. He was born in the small Northern California town of Corning on April 4th 2006. This is The Dude the day i picked him up.
We then spent the next 2 and half months living in my old fraternity house. This turned out to be a brilliant move on my part. I house trained my dog in a house where half the residents were not house trained themselves. Therefore, hardly anyone noticed anything out of ordinary. Here I am battling the worlds most ferocious basset hound puppy in the Theta Chi house.
After a summer at the Theta Chi house, we moved on to 837 Douglass St. This is of course where The Dude joined forces with Starlett Trauner, seen Below. Together they became a couch ruining force to be reckoned with. Over the course of this year I did something foolish...I graduated. Time to move out of Davis.
Once again, The Dude and I packed up shop and moved on, this time for a brief stint in Sunnyvale. After a couple months, we moved to our current residence in the small town of Alamo, CA. The Dude seems like it here. He's got plenty of space to roam in the backyard, and a good group of friends to play with.
Well the holiday season has rolled around, and once again my old man has gone to town on his incredible Christmas light display, however with the inconvenience of Heart Surgery just before opening day, my dad had to rely on a little bit of assistance this year come crunch time. I of course did not have time to help, but i sent my dog as a substitute. (which was just fine with my dad :) )
Seen above, The Dude tosses an extension cord to his grandpa. Good work Dude!

Merry Christmas, from The Dude!
Stay tuned for more Chronicles of THE DUDE!!
