"And then they chatter away about how after their new single and LP come out in the summer, they'll be doing another British tour and 15-date tour of America and how Booblys (the little dog who appeared with them in the photos of the "Introspective" LP) has now become their official mascot.
Neil: 'Bubbly's official spelling is B-u-b-b...'
Chris: 'No, it's B-o-o...'
Neil: 'Oh sorry, I got it wrong myself.'
Chris: 'It's B-o-o-b-l-y-s'
Neil: 'I thought it was B-u-b-b-l-i-e-s.'
Chris: 'It's actually Pete our assistant's dog, but yes, he's our mascot. He appeared on our Christmas card, he appeared on Going Live and attacked Gordon the Gopher. He went berserk on that actually...'
Neil: 'We were thinking of doing a record with him, but we thought that was taking things a bit too far haha...'"
The Going Live clip with Booblys is here:

Guess what? I'm going to be a fur mommy!!!!
My Aunt and Uncle (God-Parents), who rescue dogs, a few months ago rescued a beautiful female Morkie. Originally they wanted to keep her,but I told them that if something came up that I would love to adopt her. Well cut to yesterday, my Aunt T and her husband came by to talk about a wooden front door sign that I made for their home and we are talking and she pulls out and shows my mom and I a male toy Yorkie named Gunner that was surrendered to them a few days ago. She asked if I was still interested in her Morkie and I said,"Of course are you stupid or something?", lol I didn't actually say that, but I did say of course. So I would like my Tumblr family to meet the newest member of my family.
Maya (name subject to a possible change.)
UPDATE 02/14/2024
Maya is now named London. She took to her new name right away. She is a spoiled princess and knows it lol!
She is so sweet,!

hi!! may I ask for some headcanons of the members of the Fellowship dealing with a puppy? or any pet, that is, whoever you think suits each of them :3
Omg so cute!!
The fellowship with a puppy
Aragorn:
-He probably found this puppy in a box in a town he was passing through
-He had no intention of getting a dog, but it was raining and he couldn’t leave this sweet thing out in the cold
-He’s really good with animals so he knows how to care for it
-Honestly I think he is good at not allowing himself to get attached, but puppies don’t have that skill
-The puppy adopts herself
-Seriously she won’t stop following him and cries when he tries to give her away
-And well, he’s a bit of a pushover sometimes
-Maybe Arwen would like her? Yeah, it will be a gift for Arwen
-He won’t want to take the puppy with him wherever because he doesn’t want her to get hurt
-Talks to the puppy like a person
Legolas:
-Ok this is kinda a story sort of thing, but he found a mom and her babies
-The mom isn’t doing well, so he promises to her that he will take care of her babies
-Does he know how, no, but he will die before he lets these puppies come to harm
-He has a quiet funeral for the mom and he takes the pups home
-His father is not impressed
-He finds homes for all but one
-Well he found a home for it, but it’s with him
-He fell in love with going out on runs with him and definitely goes hunting with him
-He lets his dog kinda roam wherever, kinda like a barn cat
Gimli:
-He was planning to get a dog
-A big fierce one to stand by his side
-But when he goes to the shelter he falls in love with a little guy
-I’m talking a tiny little yorkie
-He dresses her in the finest bows and gold incrusted collar
-Would kill for her
-I just love seeing big tough guys with their little dogs in bows
Boromir:
-He was looking to get a dog as a gift for Faramir
-He thought it might cheer his brother up to have a furry friend to take on patrols
-But he becomes attached to the puppy and refuses to give him up
-He says he is for both of them, but Faramir knows better
-He absolutely baby talks his puppy
-“He doesn’t understand I’m talking to him unless I speak to him like this”
Frodo:
-I think he would agree to foster a puppy to help someone out
-He takes very good care of it and trains it well
-He has every intention that he will adopt it out, but once someone says they are interested he realizes he can’t part with it
-I think he finds a lot of peace with the routine that comes with caring for a puppy
-Although I honestly see him as the type to have more unique pets like some sort of lizard
Sam:
-He didn’t really want a dog
-Rosie brought one home for their kids
-But it ends up being the situation where the dad doesn’t want the dog but then they become best friends
-The puppy tries to eat his flowers, and Sam tries to get it to pull weeds instead
-I imagine he would end up with a really lazy dog once it grows out of the puppy phase that just chills with him while he gardens
Merry:
-He literally squeals
-He’s such an animal lover
-How could something be so cute
-Absolutely the type to never shut up about his puppy (me too tho)
-Trains it to do tricks, possibly to steal…
-Would have an instagram for his dog in modern day
-Also side note, I think he would be the type to have birds, like parrots and such
Pippin:
-He just picked up a stray puppy once and was like “uhm you’re coming home with me”
-Dresses him up and takes him on lots of walks
-He doesn’t understand why everyone is scared of his little puppy
-He doesn’t realize until the puppy just keeps getting bigger that this is not a dog
-It’s a wolf
-But it’s his wolf and he loves him and he is his baby
PS: I mention giving puppies as gifts, but in general this isn’t something you should do unless it has been discussed prior :)

One year ago today I met Evander for the first time and brought him home as a long term foster! He's since been adopted and is living happily in California on an alpaca farm with a bunch of other yorkies and Yorkie mixes. If this little guy had all four legs I might have considered keeping him.
I'm happy he got to land safely where he can live his terrier dreams, barking at livestock and being a general menace around a farm with a bunch of dog friends.
EDIT: correction it has been TWO years since I fostered Evander and I cannot count apparently
