It's my birthday! I'm ten years old now! I remember when I first saw my mom guardian. I was on my back, fooling around in the "grass", or some stuff that was imitating grass in Tucson, Arizona. My dog mom was there too. She was very tired. My brother was sick, and our humans back then weren't taking very good care of any of us. They put an add in the paper for free puppies. So my mom guardian came.
She was upside down when I first saw her. I pretended not to see her though. She pretended not to see me too. But I couldn't help watching her. She seemed to be looking for something, but I couldn't tell what. She went over to my dog mom. They made friends right away. I could tell my dog mom liked her, and she even layed her head in my guardian's lap. She went over and spoke to my humans for a minute. Then she walked toward me. I pretended not to notice. I just watched her with my head tilted back. She looked funny upside down like that. Then I turned over and took a few steps toward her. She took a few toward me. Next thing I knew, she had taken me closer to my mom dog to say good bye. She explained very quietly that she was taking me to my new home. My dog mom sniffed me, and I saw her put her paw on my new guardian's knee. Then we were in the car on the way home. I've loved my bi-ped guardian since then. Were' best freinds.
Anyway today will be a special day! I'll get a specially made cake with my photo on it ( of course!) some steak, some salmon, a trip to Bark Park, lots of belly rubs, and I'll get a good long brush (m-m-m I love being brushed) and my mom will take lots of photos of me. Of course I'll get tons of kisses too! Later my mom guardian says my other birthday presents will arrive. She bought a life vest and a pair of doggles for me too! I'm the luckiest dog on the planet!
