365/365 - 31 December 2013: Cheers!

The last day on the Daily Dose of Wally has finally arrived. Can’t believe we made it through. Thanks to my wife for the continued support. She also worked as my creative director. Haha. Thank you to everyone that has ever liked and/or commented on any given post. Although I'm excited that the project is over, it seems a bit bittersweet. Wally has been through a lot this whole year. He sprained a leg in May, but recovered rather quickly. He then suffered from a corneal ulcer in July and had to wear the cone of shame for 52 straight days. And just recently, he was hospitalized for eating more than half a pound of dark chocolate. Wally is a corgi with 9 lives! But on a positive note, Wally turned 5 years old in August. The Daily Dose of Wally was one of the 365 projects featured in a Tumblr blog in September. Wally ran his very first 5K9 in October and also got to visit Washington, D.C. that same month. Wally has helped donate $250 to CorgiPals for winning a photo contest through Pack. And he has donated even more ever since becoming a BarkBox “arf-filiate.” He has donated portions of his earnings to CorgiPals, American Red Cross as part of Typhoon Haiyan relief efforts and a few other corgi pem pals that needed help. One of Wally’s photos made it on a corgi calendar, which was pretty exciting. Wally met and got to play with Momo the border collie from the famous “Find Momo” series on Instagram by Andrew Knapp. Wally has also met so many corgi friends from around our area and it’s been great having corgi meet ups with the FrapPack. Yeah, that’s what they call themselves. LOL. Wally has also made a lot of friends virtually through his social media accounts. I’m sure he would love to meet them in person (or in dog) as well. Again, thank you for tuning in everyday. All your kind words made it possible for us to complete this project. The Daily Dose of Wally is officially complete. If you’d like to view and relive his 2013 journey, it’s always available on Flickr at www.bit.ly/wallymonster. And if you care to follow along, you can still get your daily dose on his Facebook (facebook.com/wallythewelshcorgi), Instagram (@wallythewelshcorgi), Vine and Twitter accounts (@wallywelshcorgi). Happy New Year to all!
