Gizmo's Birthday!!!


Yup!!! Its his birthday today. 17 years old and that would be 119 in human years.
WOW
We were not sure if he would make it to his birthday, but he did, and we are thankful. We did not throw a big party, cuz he kinda likes to hang low and just chill these days. He is saving up all his energy for my pawty in July and we will all celebrate together!!

Mum has so many entries for the scary eye photo!!! She said she will try and get them all loaded so we can vote next week or the week after. Thank you everyone for your entries and good luck to all!!!!

GIZMO!!!! Happy birthday you furry little dude! That's so nice of you to celebrate your birthday on Deetz's birthday! WOOOOOO!

Deetz, I'm a pretty big dude! Not as big as you yet, but I'm getting there!

I'm sure you aren't like a big baby at all, I get a high pitched bark too...it's only to through of the suspecting enemy...yea!

mmmmmm chewies! Deetz, I have the best idea ever! Maybe what we should do is find a location between our homes...and we can start a west coast and mid-land America get together with all our furry friends! It will be like a real party! I will bring some snackies! And then all the other doggies around the US and world can set up a once a year thing where there is a massive party!

Wooo we could be like the Founders of uhhhh DOGLAND day!!!!

What do you think...

Slurp!

Oops I meant that my high pitched bark is meant to throw off the suspecting enemy..

You are one TOUGH DUDE! Happy Birthday, man! I'm doing a little goober dance right now in your honor!

I want to know if you've started writing your memoirs yet. A sage pup such as yourself must have oodles of wisdom and experience to pass on to us! I'll be watching for your book to hit the stores.

Goober love & birthday smooches,
