HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME !!
. 

Actually, my birthday was on Saturday, but we were away for the weekend in Kingston, Ontario for a show. It's kind of hard to celebrate your birthday at a dogshow, unless the judges let all us dogs run free and party. But even I knew that wasn't going to happen so I decided to not even think about my birthday til today.
So I celebrated by spending my entire day with Mama. Don't you love when moms have a day off from work and the weather's nice?

I chewed on my favourite stick and then we played ball. Mama's a little on the clutzy side and she throws like a girl. Frankly, I just wanted to play with my ball by myself and look for squirrels and maybe dig up a couple of the hostas. But I didn't want to hurt her feelings. I put up with it for a while and then I hid.

But there was one thing and one thing only that I really, really, really wanted on my birthday ...

I was wishing so hard for one special thing.... can you guess what it was?

Ice cream. Yeah!
Mama finally took that silly hat off me and I went inside to play with my new plushies that I got at the show.

A happy birthday boy

Later in the evening, Mama borrowed the key to the swimming pool we share with our neighbours at our condo. I got to run off-leash all around the grounds surrounding the pool for 20 minutes. I was jumping and twirling and running like the wind. For me that's a huge treat. I don't get to run wild off-leash often enough. I don't really enjoy the dogpark anymore because some of the people (not the dogs) aren't very nice because their dogs are untrained and aggressive. So now Mama's going to ask the pool manager if I can run there every night when the pool is closed. Hmmmm. Maybe all my dogfriends from the condo can run with me. Imagine - a poolside party every night!

My beautiful friend Honey is having a Spectacular Slobber contest. Here are my entries. Take your pick, Honeygirl.

I only drip-slobber at the dinner table. Sometimes I shake my head and paste my spit right to the diningroom wall. Ha Ha. That's so much fun.

Sometimes I bubble-slobber.

Don't forget to post your best slobber photos on your blog and let Honey know you're in the competition.

Have a great week, everybody.
