Party Puppy!




Lottie Moon attended her first birthday party on Saturday.  Although it was actually a party in honor of Zeb the briard’s third birthday, since Lottie was estimated by the shelter to be born around April 14, I kinda like to think of it as a party for her, too.  There was even doggie birthday cake.











I believe we counted approximately ten dogs in attendance.  I say “approximately” because they moved a lot.  A confirmed head count proved too difficult.  Of all my dogs, Lottie Moon is the only one who enjoys the company of dogs not in our pack, so she was the one chosen to attend the party.  Plus, I knew that having that many dogs in a small house who don’t know each other and 2 of them briards and two of them Jack Russell terriers would be cause for lots and lots of dog stress.  Since Lottie can’t see or hear, she would be much more blissfully ignorant of the stress than some of my other dogs.  So Lottie was the lucky one who got to be the party girl.
  
The girl can rock a hat, can't she?!

Daque and Kaylee, party guests, lovin' the hats!

New love:  Talis




She seemed to have fun.  For one thing, there was cake, and my girl loves her treats!  For another, there were lots of new dogs and people to meet, and she glommed on to a new friend, Talis the yellow Labrador retriever.  He is a giant dog, and very handsome, and Lottie chose him as her new best friend.  He was quite tolerant. 
     
I tried to get a photo of Lottie eating
cake, but she was too quick.  All gone!
