Today is my 1st GOTCHA Day!
Above, I am kissing my Dad, for the very first time! Mom said we chose each other, cause of our hair color is the same.

We just got done saying good-bye to one of my brothers, who also got adopted.

Here, I am saying bye to some of my other housemates, and hoping they get adopted soon too.

Don't I look cute in the Dodo chair? It's Dad's chair.

And, here I am, all grown up. I am 15 months old now!  I know how to really protect my folks from, other doggies, people, and golf carts going by our house! I do: sit, lay down, shake paws, and speak all by hand signals now, and am learning, roll over. I LOVE balls, chewy sticks, and unstuffing my stuffies. Mom and Dad are soooooo glad they chose me, and so am I!
Lovies, Miss Mindy

My Party

Wow! I am so tired after my birthday party! Just gonna lay my head on my unstuffed, stuffie, and rest for a bit!
A TON of my doggie and kitty friends came over to celebrate with me, and boy, did we ever do up this party right! Above, you can see the yummy treats we had every hour on the hour. Those were in-between, t-bone steak, chicken, Cheetos, Guinness, cake and ice cream! Gosh, that all was so good tasting!
We had all these balloons to play with! It got really loud here, with so many of them popping! We all decided to send a bunch of them up to doggie and kitty heaven too. That was so all our former pets, and friends pets, could have them. That was cool, watching them float away in the sky!
Then, Mom and Dad took all of us over to Cinderella's castle, to see the fireworks they had just for me! Talk about LOUD! WHEW! We all will be lucky if we can ever hear again! But.........it was beautiful!
After that, we came home for some of this delicious bone cake! I don't know why the picture is so small, cause that cake had to be about three feet long! It was yummy, and me and my friend devoured it fast!

So.....it was quite a 1st birthday. Thanks to all my bloggie friends for attending, and making me such a happy one year old!

Just so you all know, there were no pups or kitties swinging from the chandelier, but.........Puddles and Madi did a super dance on top of the dining room table in their bikinis! (Mom was thinking, Thank God there wasn't a pole in the center of the table! BOL) There was some drooling going on during this dance, but I won't name any names!

I also want to thank all the new friends in Bloggland who came via Madi's tram to wish me a Happy Birthday!

A million lovies, Miss Mindy

Thank You Santa Paws!

This is my Christmas bag, all full of goodies! Mom took a video of me getting into it, but it won't load on Blogger! Anyway, The first thing I found, was a ball!  I ran away with it, chewed it a bit, then I came right back to my bag! Inside I found, the pink flat dog you can see above.

Next there was this white rope thingy. OK I get it! It's a Tug O War rope! NEAT!

Then.........there was this awesome BIG greasy bone! Dad was nice and opened it for me!

Here's a closer look at my bone. (after I already chewed off some of one end BOL)

Here is a better pic of the flat dog toy, and what I did RIGHT AWAY to my ball! BOL, BOL, BOL!
There was still another toy, I will show that to you all another day. I had an AWESOME 1st Christmas! Now I understand why we have all these decorations around here and why we were having a big birthday bash, cause Mom told me the story about The First Christmas, when the Baby Jesus was born. They all sure sounded like a very cool family! So I said with my Mom; "Happy Birthday Jesus"! It was the best birthday party I have been to yet! Oh wait a minute, it was the first and only birthday party I have ever been to!
Hope all my friends in Blog land had a Very Merry Christmas!
Lovies, Miss Mindy
