OH WOOOOOOOOO!
How can you mommy forget??? Is she getting old? If that's the case then I understand. The days just run together when you get old. I KNOW!
Well Happy Ampuversary!
And go easy on your mom - she's old you know!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

Comet, yes, mom is getting up there! She creaks in the mornings, and whines about her aching bones a lot. She should try being a tripawd! Or she should try being as old as ME! I passed her by nearly 5 years ago!!!

Hey Rio, ask mom how she feels when someone forgets HER birthday!!!!!! Maybe we should mark it on the calender so we can remind her when 7..8..9..10..etc are coming up. Big Paws up to you Rio, Spirit Gus and Dan
My buddy Gus had a left front amputation on April 7, 2010 and lived a great life until July 26,2010

Six months is a big deal, but since you didn't get the lovin' for this one, that means Lucky #7 is going to be a HUGE celebration! Right Mom?

Rio:
Your Mom does not have access to In N Out Burger up there, but she can take you to Burgerville (our favorite when we were in the NW) to celebrate! Rusty gets an In N Out burger every month on his ampuversary.
Chuck & Rusty
Rusty is a Labradoodle who was diagnosed with level 3 Fibrosarcoma on January 16th, 2010 and had his left hind leg amputated on January 25th, 2010 five days before his 18 month birthday. Please see Rusty's blog @rusty.tripawds.com. He is putting up one heck of a fight against this terrible disease.

Hey Monkey-Butthead Bunny,
Guess what happened to your minions at my house today?! Baths!!!! Hahahaha! Cuz Monkeydogs SMELL BAD!!!! They think that "party" means rolling in dead things! Stoopid monkeybutts, don't you know that moms don't like dogs that smell like dead things? They like sweet-smelling girls like me!

Hey Rio - Late to the party as usual, but we're always looking for a reason to celebrate! Happy 6 months. We're glad you're doing well and hoping we can see you all soon, even the Monkeybutts you have to put up with.
