Everyone's favorite house elf is celebrating their birthday today, according to JK Rowling's official website! Warm birthday wishes go out to the late Dobby, who we all hope is having a relaxing servant-less life on "the other side". Additionally, Snitch Seeker informs us that the Links page on Jo's site has been updated. A new link to the VOLANT Charitable Trust, set up by Jo herself, benefits Multiple Sclerosis research and alleviates social deprivation. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!

Jimmy_D, there is no point in posting Spoiler after your comment. =P All the same, I think everyone knows he is dead...R.I.P and Happy Birthday, Dobby.

Funny enough, I hated the darned elf. But his death was the only one to bring tears to my eyes. RIP Dobby. I do hope they have socks in the afterlife.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOBBY!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 02:04:49

Happy Birthday Dobby!!! I was so sad about Dobby. I really cried. I named my little Chihuahua Dobby. Someone ran him over. His big ears and big eyes, so sweet, so loyal... I couldnt resist. Wherever you are Dobby, at least you are with Dumbledore, Hedwig, Fred(really cried over that one), Tonks, Lupin, Mad-Eye, Sirius, Lily, James and even Severus Snape. May you get many, many socks. A free elf... what a wonderful gift... Freedom

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 04:37:22

Miss Dobby so much :( He can have all my socks. I think the saddest deaths were Dumbledore, Hedwig, Snape and Dobby. R.I.P

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 07:21:45

Happy Birthday Dobby! RIP Dobby, a free elf. May he be happy where ever he is, and have a lot of socks.* bursts out in tears* (No, Siriusly, I am nearly crying)

Happy birthday Dobby...man I cried like a baby when he died :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 08:26:41

this is unusual for Jo to remeber Dobbys birthday when he is dead. She didnt even acknowledge Fred and Georges birthday in April because Fred was dead. She also does not acknowledge Sirius and Dumbledores birthdays because they are dead.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 08:55:12

Happy birthday my dear free houself! Dobby 4ever... :( :(

Happy Birthday Dobby, the free elf! R.I.P.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 10:40:36

The news blurb has a grammatical error in it, and this one bugs me. It should read that he is celebrating HIS birthday, not their birthday. How many Dobbys are there. Just one. And youre right merrymarge we should no longer celebrate Dobbys birthday since he is dead, we should now begin to celebrate the deceases deathdays. After all death is truly the next great adventure.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 10:52:58

DOBBY!!!!!!!!Why did he have to die?! Happy Birthday, Dobby. R.I.P :( When is Siriuss and Dumbledores Birthdays, anyway?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 11:04:29

Happy Birthday Dobby! May all the elves be happy and have freedom if they want it!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 14:01:04

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 14:12:52

I wish Dobby a happy birthday even he is not with us any more. Please JK can you write something about before Harry is in school.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-28 23:40:20

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-29 00:01:34

Both of these lines are WB COPY RIGHTED AND I GIVE ALL CREDIT TO WB STUDIO!!! Dobby IS NOT my character!!! "Master gave dobby a sock. Dobby freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeee!!!"(Book/movie #2) "Dobby dead!!!"(Book/Movie #7)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-06-29 04:03:01

Remember Micah said to Andrew: You are not yet ready for the Dobster. LMAO. Ah, too bad Dobby died. Atleast he didnt try to look for a loophole in every single piece of instructions that Harry gave him, like another certain house-elf. It might of been Kreacher, but remember in Deathly Hallows when he bashed the frying pan on her head. Dobby! Stop! One more for luck, Harry Potter? No. We need her concious. But if we need somebody to bash a frying pan on her head, you can do the honours. ROFL LOL.
