We will start with some SPRINGY Flowers.... Dory did LOVE those...
BUTT even though THIS is a TREE not a Flower... we wanted to put it in... since it is our PAWSONAL REMINDER of the time we got to Spend... IN THE FURS... with our DEAR DORY... Last June when we Met at BAR.
We were supposed to take a GIFT that was somethingy from YOUR AREA of the Country... and then we all Traded Gifts... WE got the one that DORY and Crew Brought... It is a RED WOOD TREE...
HERE it WAS... when we got back HOME and were ready to PLANT IT..
It CAME in that TUBE thingy.... and it was really needing Sunlight...
Leave it ALONE Ernie... I got it Nice and Straight...
I think it is a little off CENTER Frankie...
ERNIE... it is FINE...
SO you can See that it wasn't very Tall... BUTT WAIT.... THERE's MORE...
We tended it Carefully fur the rest of the summer... and THIS is what it was like... by OCTOBER 16th, 2016.
We set the TUBE that it was BORN IN... beside it.... so you can get some Pawspective...
It OBVIOUSLY got WAY too Tall and Wide to ever fit in there again...
AMAZING isn't it???
It has Grown SO MUCH.... SO FAST that it was in DANGER of BENDING The Main Trunk... SO..
MOM took SCISSORS to it... WE WERE TERRIFIED.... We thought she was gonna KILL our TREE fur SURE... BUTT guess What... We Brought it INTO THE HOUSE... and All Late Fall and WINTER now into the Spring... SHE has been Living on top of the BIG BED where SHE can get Sunshine (when we had it) and MOM carefully kept HER well Watered. Every night mom gives Her a 1/4 TURN...to keep HER growing nice She must like having us Sleep "UNDER" her Roots... Beclaws....
HERE SHE IS NOW...
She looks TERRIFIC, don't you think? SOON it will be warm enough fur her to go Back Outside... butt when that happens... we will take her Outta her Pot... and give her all FRESH Potting Soil... and some Fertilizer stuffs (NOT WHAT YOU ARE THINKING>>>Shame on You.) and she will be in the Full Sun... on our porch...
SO we decided that we needed to give HER a Name...
We thought and Thought and THOUGHT about it... fur less than 87 seconds and we do think we did Chews the MOST PAWFECT EVER Name...
Red Wood DORY (Dory fur Short)
YOU will be with us... just like your NAMESAKE... the REAL DORY !!!
We will Look at you and ALWAYS be reminded of Our DEAR DORY !!!

We're so glad the little tree went to someone who could raise it right! I think Redwood Dory is going to LOVE living with you!

OMD! That tree is pawesome! I think Red Wood Dory is the perfect name for that little tree! I cannot wait for you to show us how it continues to grow.
OMCs FnE...my mom told me she was very envious of your tree when you got it...MOLMOL...however, truth be told she told herself your peeps have a proven history of being super gardeners so it was best it went home with you. And NOW after seeing how well you all planted and loved and nurtured it...we say WE ARE PLEASE AS PUNCH YOU HAVE IT.
jumpin' catfish look at it almost a year old and thriving. Cool Beans....
Dory's mama will be very touched that you have named it Red Wood Dory aka Dory....

Simply beautiful!
Cammie!
We were thinkin' it was growing so quickly, it must be a GIANT redwood or something! You did a great job! You must have green paws. (Now, don't let your Dad near it with pruning shears. Men sort of go crazy when they prune...SHE says) We know Dory and the Boyz feel honoured that you named it after her.
What a pawfect tribute to DOry - a living tree from her yard!
Your Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
That's a wonderful idea! She was lucky to have you two as friends.
