HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY!
3 years ago today Buddy was rescued from a shelter in eastern NC by Lab Rescue NC. I wish I knew his story. I WISH I knew his age. Seems like he has been 10 for several years. :) I have a hard time saying he is 11. Perhaps he should be 10 one more year. We love you Budster!
PS Yes, we are having a party later. He and Sam will each get presents and then homemade doggie ice cream which they both love!
Sam and Buddy on vacation
Recently Don and I took the boys to Hilton Head. Here is how they spent vacation: (its a dog's life!)




and that is the way Sam spent vacation.
Buddy

Buddy - bless his heart. He hates going to the vet. He trembles uncontrollably when he is there. He has to go today to have surgery to remove a growth on his lower lip that is growing pretty fast. Poor guy had all of his front teeth pulled several months ago and now lip surgery. He's going to have a hard time eating for the next few days but I know he'll find away. He loves meal time and wasn't happy about not getting breakfast this morning. We'll make it up to him though. We love you Buddy!

Buddy & Sam - this is how my boys and I spent today, a really nice Sunday afternoon in April. Sam is happiest when he is wandering around the backyard. At 13.5 yrs, he tends to wander a lot so I have to keep my eye on him. Needless to say, his name gets yelled a lot as he tries to wander out of our backyard. Buddy I think would prefer to be in the house but as long as I'm outside with him, he'll tolerate it for awhile. Of course, I bring "his pillow" outside so he can lay on it and not have to lay directly on the grass or the deck. Spoiled?? Perhaps. He's 10 and we rescued him 2 years ago. I figure whatever makes him happy! :) We love our boys!
