Happy birthday Aschiuta!

Today we lazed in bed for a while and when Scorp woke up, I told him "It's Aschiuta's designated birthday". So, he grabbed doggie and gave her a big hug and started singing "Happy birthday to pooch".

She's a big doggie now...

It's Aschiuta's first birthday today, at least the one we chose for her in her health file.

Pooch was found in the street as a pup. She was barely one month old at the time and looked very lonely.

At first, we thought she was older, so we chose her birthday as April 14. On a closer inspection and judging by the time she started changing her baby teeth, we talked to the vet and decided it would be May 14. This date is a combination between Scorp's and my birthdays: my month and his date.

Small fuzzy pup...
She has been with us for almost a year now and we've seen her grow older, wiser, into a very energetic dog. We've gone through health problems, vaccination, fleas and train and car rides. She has chewed on a lot of things and ate some things she shouldn't have. She has kept us warm during the cold winter nights and made us laugh and play when we were upset and worried.
 
She is our dear pooch and we are happy she's with us. And we don't plan on giving up on her either.

Many happy returns of the day, pooch!

  4. I thought of her when I opened my eyes this morning :) and sent a silent Happy Birthday through the airwaves!

    She is really beautiful and looks so comfortable taking over the bed ;) (I love your gorgeous embroidered sheets, BTW!)

    I hope you all had a lovely day...and managed a walk in the park, too, perhaps?

  5. Thank you for the wishes for pooch. She went out with Scorp and they played around. We're planning a lot of meat for her for dinner, which I'm sure she'll love.

    I like the expression "she landed with her bum in the butter", though I'm not exactly sure what it means. She does get spoiled though...
