I will get back to regular blogging after the holidays, I swear. In the meantime, here’s a picture of Snickers sleeping on the couch between my parents while they were here for Christmas.

I have a better photo that shows that my mom is passed out asleep too, but she would kill me if I posted it. hee hee

I couldn’t help myself. I had to make an loldog of Snickers after he appropriated and curled up on this pillow that is barely bigger than he is.

Of course, if you think it is cute, you should click through to IHasAHotdog and give it five cheeseburgers!

Hi all,

today was my fifth birthday. mom made a big deal of it. she said something about five being special. also, there’s thing day called Thanksgiving where the people eat together. the day I was born was Thanksgiving and this year it was Thanksgiving again. (I have no idea why it isn’t that way every year, so don’t ask me.) anyway, after all the people ate - and I had some of that, don’t worry - seeky and I got to eat a special kind of cake, just for us! I never had a cake of my own before. the top tasted like peanut butter and it was really yummy. mom was ridiculous and took pictures of us eating. she added them here at the bottom.

when your dog has a special birthday, think about treating them with doggy birthday cake. it was really yummy!

luv,
Snickers

T found her camera. I was so happy that I made a couple vids for your viewing amusement.

Snick doesn’t want the new blog to be ALL about serious stuff, so here’s one just for fun.

I met some of my bestest friends through the Shiba Meetup group that Snick and I started in NYC a couple years ago, so we’ve started one here in Indianapolis too. The Indy Shibas have had two meetups so far. Below are some photos from our second meetup, which was this past Sunday afternoon in Fort Harrison State Park. You may click the smaller images to embiggen.
