"YAPPY BIRTHDAY"

my dog Bibby

Okay, for most of my subscribers and who have gotten to know me through Activerain, you know how much I love my dog, Bibby! Well, Bibby is my black lab that will be turning "10" this May! Ten is a big milestone for a dog and we have been so blessed to have her as an addition to our family. We got Bibby from a woman in Sterling who had a litter of 7 lab puppies. Course my daughter's friend in school invited her over to see the puppies and my daughter called and wanted us to just "GO LOOK" at them. I called my husband and said we were just "GOING TO LOOK" with no intentions of taking one home until we saw the 7 adorable 6 week old puppies running around the yard! All the puppies had a different color ribbon around their neck except for Bibby. The owner told us she was the only one with a white spot under her chin. Hence, her name was Bibby and for that reason. Two weeks later, we took Bibby home with us to be a part of our family.

Now, almost ten years from that day, Bibby has become such a big part of our lives and I am giving her a birthday party in May. Call me crazy but I am bringing her to a photographer tomorrow for her birthday photo session. Once photos are in, I will then be sending out invites to all her dog friends in the neighborhood and in our family. I have talked with a local baker and she will be making Pup Cakes so each dog has a special treat and peanut butter favors to take home!

I hope our dog guests and their owners will be able to play frisbee in the nearby park or take a stroll around the neighborhood. Here's hoping they have a "DOG-GONE" good time, no PUN intended!

Hope you and your dogs have a great time. My wife feels the same as you with her dog- she makes sure "Lucy"(120 pound yellow lab) has a stocking(and usually full) on the mantle with the kid's at Christmas, and celebrates the days birthday every year too.

@Tommy, then I'm not crazy then! :) Bibby always has a full Christmas stocking too.

@Ron and Alexandra, Kobe must have loved the crab for a treat! Lucky cat!

@Roger, I'll have to take photos for you to see! Should be a fun day!

'Bibby'!  What a cute name, Michele.

Now I understand why you were so empathetic when I lost my Rhondo in Jan.

I hope you are having a great 2011 and post about Bibby again real soon!
