Happy Birthday - 8 Years young today

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday Dear Miloooooo
Happy birthday to you
And many mooorrrreeeeeeee


Today is my birthday. I'm now 8 Years young.  I celebrated my day by starting off my morning with a long walk.  I came home, had breakfast, napped, was then given a raw bone to chew on.
Devin, Auntie Shelley and Nana had a few places they needed to go today, so i was given my  KONG filled with frozen yogurt while they stepped out for a few hours. I was quite content to stay at home.

When everyone arrived back I greeted them at the door with a little cry.
Auntie Shelley gave me my present.  She brought a creepy squeaky green hand. It came all the way from Florida with her.  It was wrapped into brown paper bag too!   I flung that hand around our place, chasing it and knocking it into the wall. I had 5 full minutes of pure joy, then I had to take a break. I was panting up a storm.

Later in the evening we went over to Nana's for my birthday celebration. We all put on party hats and had Dairy Queen Frozen Cake. The cake had "happy birthday Milo and Devin" written on it.
Dad made sure I only had a tiny piece; also made sure there was no chocolate in there for me to eat.
I ate my piece, licked my plate clean and then retired to the living room.

All in all, I'd have to say that I had a Greyt birthday! 
Here's to turning 8 Years Young.

Milo-Lantern

First off, I need to make a shout-out  to a vocal loyal view.  Kelly - I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up with my blog.  When you sleep for 16hrs+ a day, there isn't much in the way of things to update about.  ;)


I was brought up to Camp Greyhound this past Monday.  Justin and Michelle took wonderful care of me.

They  brought me over to see Dr. Paul Neilan of Alcona Animal Hospital for my dental. 
Dr. Paul told Dad that I'm a really nice boy handsome boy. *proud smile*
Once I was sleeping, he called Dad from the operating room to give an update on what he saw inside my mouth.  At the time he believed 2 back teeth were going to need removal, but once he cleaned and polished my teeth, it turned out I only lost 1 tooth - bottom center tooth.

Due to my missing tooth, Dad jokingly said that he was going to call me Jack - as in Jack-O-Lantern.
I'm not sure if I find the humor in this just yet.

The people at the Alcona clinic were super nice and called to see how I was making out.  I highly recommend Dr. Paul Neilan and his staff to my friends. 

After my 2 nights and 2.5 days at camp, Dad came to pick me up.  We went and stayed with Melissa for the remainder of the week.  I was a bit high strung and antsy, very much my fathers shadow.  Towards the end of our stay though, i started to settle in a tad.  

It was nice to get back home and be in my familiar surroundings. I slept like a log last night, and most of today. 

Every time I come back from Camp more of my personality pops out.  While I was staying at Melissa's - post camp, I was a big rangy.  I took to stealing blankets and clothing. I jumped around bucking like a bronco with them.  When I was caught in the act, I dropped down and laid on my "findings" like nothing ever happened, very uncertain as to how a blanket or article of clothing was laying under me.  I had no answers to give when asked. "how did that get there"?      I blame my new quirks on Ms. Tempo - resident mischief engage'r.

Here are photos from the last little while.  Some were taken with the cell phone while others were with the camera.   Enjoy!


Karen? Karen? Where are you going??
Karrrreennnnnn!!!
Obey

There was this time when Devin came home from working nights and i didn't want to get out of bed for my morning "out".



 There was this time when I used the inch that was given and got into the bedroom unnoticed; or so i thought

We went on an early morning walk in the fog.

 There was this time when I found a secret path and walked Devin through ice and  mud.

There was this time I was a greyhound in sheep clothing

 There was a day when Devin came home with a box of meaty bones for me. I watched Nana separate them.

Tired from chewing


There was a time when i stole the body pillow from the bedroom and pulled it down the hall.

 There was a time we stopped by Nana's on our morning walk. I took a nap.


 There was a time when I went and visited the twins.  Sometimes I don't understand them.


 My new collar came in the mail.  Racing PROud

 There was a time when Dad lost me.  Nana took me for a LONG walk while Dad put the clothing on the line.  He walked up and down the street looking for me. When i couldn't be found, he got into his car and came looking for me.

There was a time when Dad lost me at Melissa's; only to find me in bed with her.
