Today is my birthday - 🎂 1 year on steemit 🎂
It's my birthday - celebrate with me
Actually, my real birthday is 9th of August 2012 - so I'm almost 7 years old now.
But on steemit I'm one year old now.
Time flies when you're having fun and I'm having a lot of fun!
The very first photo on steemit in my #introduceyourself post
I shared with you some of my moments in life
After @pundito and @psionic-tremors discussed if it would be a reasonable idea to let a dog blog his stories my steemit journey started.
I only wrote 37 posts in one year because with my posts I want to tell you a story.
My humans take many photos of me - what I do not always like by the way - and I could have posted every day. But I'm not sure if you would appreciate just a small post with a photo.
I mean, I have 226 followers with 37 posts only and I don't want to disappoint them.
Would you like me to write also short posts with some photos?
Or are you following me because of my stories?
Photos or stories ... what do you would like to see more?
I could not find out yet - so please help me.
A small summery what I wrote about
- My introduction post: What if a dog is writing a blog? Here is Marley
- Daily happenings: Do you like to share? With a stranger?
- Explanations: One reason why so many dogs behave 'badly' on a leash and Do you know about positive stress?
- Funny things: A gorilla in town!!!
- I showed you my "big brother" Snoop: Most times life is awesome !!!
- I showed you my girlfriend: My girlfriend is visiting me!!!
- I told you about my buddy Robby: Instead of sitting in a cage my friend had the holiday of his life at my place
- I shared with you the most terrible day I had when my "big brother" Snoop left us: Friday, 27.07.2018 - a summary of a day I will never forget. R.I.P. buddy
... and some more ... even if it were only 37 posts yet.
We all are still missing Snoop a lot
Here Snoop and me are waiting to be served cognac and cigars
And we enjoyed the time together on the beach
So, I shared sad stories, funny stories and also educational stories.
We had most of them ... which ones do you like most?
What do you want to read about more?
Example: do you want to know why your dog does not react when you're blowing the whistle and also get to know the secret how your dog will react as you wish?
I think I'll try to make it a mixture of funny photos, life stories, and some educational post, ok?
Please let me know in the comments. The best comments will get a part of the bounty ;)
Special thanks go out to ...
I want to thank @supernovastaffy who introduced the tag #dogsofsteemit and @kona together with @dpet who introduced the tag #dailypetphotography. They supported me from the very beginning!
Also, I want to thank @shepherd-stories where I hope to read more about again in the near future.
Very special thanks go out to @soyrosa and @ocd. @soyrosa introduced my last post Two very exciting weeks - it can only get better to @ocd and I was blown away by the result.
There are so many more like @pifc and @thedarkhorse helping beginning steemians to have a good start here. @headchange featured my post Sweet as sugar in the #payitforward contest.
Actually, I just want to say thank you to all the supporters I found here the last year.
CU around,
your Marley 🐕
I think I will follow you now. You are probably the only dog with a steem account.
That's so kind of you but I have to admit there are already more dogs with a steemit account.
But I was for sure one of the first if not the first :)
Thanks a lot!!!
CU around,
your Marley 🐕

Congratulations on your 1 year! It is a milestone to be proud of indeed. :D
Myself, October will be my one year, so you give me hope on a solid future ahead.
As per your question, what to write about and what would I like to see more of... well.. I think you are on a good path. Posting fun stores and images of your pup is a win. Try to post every day, and connect with people is a great way to get moving and grooving. Going to leave a upvote for you as well!
Thanks so much for stopping by and your comment @jacuzzi!!!
Very much appreciated!
Your Marley 🐕
Wow! I just had a look at your blog and I must say it's astonishing and mind-blowing.
To be honest, I am not much a fan of dogs or pets in general but the way you the story and pictures are presented slept me off my feet.
I would definitely love to have you as a pet Marley :)
Hope you had a happy and memorable Steem birthday to begin with.
Take care of yourself buddy!

@dog-marley, In my opinion this is very interesting step to create account particularly for dog stories. Congratulations for your one year completion and wishing you more amazing journey ahead. Stay blessed.
Thanks for stopping by and your comment @chireerocks!
Welcome.
Happy Birthday @dog-marley, I just ran across your post today and I really enjoy pet photos. To grow your account I would try to post daily, even if it's just a photo. Try to win some @steembasicincome units so your guaranteed upvotes on every post.
Good luck, don't eat all your cake at one sitting! 🐾
