In the midst of all the pain and sorrow this past week – there was some joy too.  I needed to remind myself of that and wanted to share with everyone here.  Just over a week ago we celebrated Radar's 2 year ampuversary with a little get together and the Vet's office (Animal Hospital of Vandercook Lake) where they take such good care of all of my pups. 

 

So I've had my bath – Let's Party!!

Ok – now the foods here too – let's get this party rolling

Receptionis Deb holds my dish so I can get all the ice cream out

Dad shares his too

Gotta get that last bit on my nose

Brother Blade gets to join in too

And my best part – visiting with Dr. Fouty – She luvs me sooo much

Fun and ice cream were had by all and I even got to peak under the cover and see the birds in that room.

Thanks for all the photos. Many thought that Dad was crazy when he took a cake to our local vet's office and another cake to the oncology/surgery/emergency care facility but like you show, everyone there really enjoyed the PAWRTY. We need to thank them for all the great care that they gave me and Allie, not only after my cancer diagnosis but for all the great care. Also, we totally approve of the ICE CREAM – the perfect TriPawd PAWRTY requirement.

yup – I really think the ice cream is the main reason they like going to the vets office (not that they don't love the whole gang there)  but there is an ice cream parlor around the corner from the clinic that sells "puppy cups"  – a dish of ice cream with a dog biscuit in it.  And if you look particularly pitiful you get a large dish with 2 dog biscuits in it LOL.   They get one every time we go.

Radar, you look FANTASTIC!  I can only hope my senior lady looks as good when she celebrates her two years in just a few months.  You really know how to throw a pawty.

Happy Ampuversary, Radar!  I never thought about celebrating with the person who made it all possible.  That's a great idea!
