Happy 7th Birthday

Forgive me but I am working on 3 hours sleep in 2 days. This is Doozie and taking it was so funny as she tried ever so hard to get that thing off her head. Doozie got an antler and she is coveting it.Good thing she had a bath the other day but you can hardly tell as she is playing so hard and getting ever so dirty as they all are. This will be my only update in this blog today. We are taking photos but will play catchup tomorrow. Thanks for understanding! I am even having a non groom day and cancelled any haircuts. I had to. Nathan heads to vets this afternoon and is sleeping now.

From Anne: Here are three birthday photos of Spicy: notice in the first pic, the cake is intact. In the second, she gobbled up the cookie. Then, she insisted on sharing her cake with Cooper, so sweet.

From me: Happy birthday, Spicy, Doozie (photo coming when I am alive as she is here), Pacho, Gracie, Charlie, Marlee Sue and the late Baxter who died from a car accident. 

I can't believe Adele's litter is sharing a birthday (not year) with you. This is the very first time this has happened!

Gorgeous photos ! Love the "ate the cookie" one ! Happy Birthday to all !

Spicy wishes Happy Birthday to all her siblings. May your day be wonderful, just like all of you. To think that Adele's pups were born on that special day. Very special.

Su, Angela: I bought the cake at a doggie specialty store in our area. It is grain-free, carrots, peanut butter and the icing is made with cream cheese and peanut butter. I will admit that all that Spicy ate was the cookie and licked the icing with Coop. I wish I could have given her the whole cake but Miss Spicy has to keep that lovely figure that she has in top shape :-)

Thank you, Anne,
I am wondering if I could make a small doggy cake, you got me thinking.

Love the photos, your dogs are beautiful.

Happy Birthday to all the 'pups' celebrating their 7th Birthday today. Spicy's pictures with Cooper are great.

Happy Birthday to dear Spice and siblings! Such great photos and thanks for sharing,
Chinook celebrated his 7th birthday on Wednesday and he got some chicken which is his fave treat and Breeze his big sister loved it too! We love them so much and thank you so much for doing all you do! Our duo are just the most loving and fun dogs and we love watching them play together daily and especially running on the beach and are off leash and just stay with us but have fun exploring and chasing the chuck it ball!
All the pups are so cute and congrats to all the families who are lucky enough to add a Talemaker pup to their family.

Shelley so great to hear from you!! We miss you! Hope life is treating you well!

Give Breezie and Chinook a hug from us, please!

Happy Birthday Dear Spicy and all her siblings. What beautiful pictures. I agree with Shelley. Talemaker pups are the BEST. And DARLAH I so appreciate your blogs. Gives us a chance to share our dawgs and our mutual love for them.

Happy 7th Birthday to dear Spicy! What a precious dawg!
Happy Birthday to Doozie too! What a sweetheart!

October 27, 2017 | Unregistered CommenterLiz and Abby

Wow, has it really been 7 years? Happy Birthday to all. I still think about Baxter every now and then. So sad. Hard to lose a pet at anytime but so young and from a heartbreaking set of circumstances.
