Happy Birthday to ME !

Hi all, today is my second birthday and I have grown to be a fine dog! Mom and Dad say I am beautiful and they are happy that finally I'm house broken!

Alot has happened since I came to live with Mom and Dad. First of all the sad part, my sister Sophie was hit by a car and died two days after Christmas 2006. We had lots of people staying with us during the Holidays and someone didn't close the people door in the garage and Sophie went out by herself. Mom says we had a Guardian Angel with us cause me and Emma didn't follow Sophie like we usually did. It was the saddest day ever and it took us months to get on with our lives. Me and Emma didn't even know how to play without Sophie because she was alpha and bossed us all around. All we did was mope. Mom and Dad were so sad they cried every day for months.

Gradually things got better. Mom began to get back to herself and started to do things with us again so we had a very nice summer. We went to the park for picnics and walks many times and we love it. There is a shallow creek and minnows to chase. It was a very hot summer and the breeze was nice and there was lots of shade. We also went down to the river and watched the ducks and checked out what's going on in town. Dad likes to take us for car rides with the windows down so we can hang out the window and smell the wonderful smells. We have carseats that we are harnessed to so we can't fall out and Dad goes to places where he can drive slow, just for us. Can you say SPOILED?

Last month we drove to Mt. Hope, Ohio to pick up my baby sister Shailee. Mom wanted another pup and she always gets one from rescue. I didn't want a sister, I like being the baby, the ONLY baby. I try my darndest to get between Shai and Mom or Dad. They say I'm jealous, whatever that is.

Wow, I gotta go, I think Mom is getting ready to take me to Petsmart to buy me treats and toys. happy Birthday to ME ME ME !
See ya,
Love Oscar
