Happy One Year Old Birthday Pretz!

August 28th was Pretz's one year old birthday\(^o^)/
Since I had to work all day and I couldn't do anything special for her, I promised her I would spend all day with her the following day to make it up! At least Papa went to Woof Gang Bakery (a great doggie store at North Hills!) and got a birthday cake for her. Thanks Papa!
The next morning I took them for a long morning walk and post-Pretz's birthday had started!
I gave both Pretz and Pocky a nice bath and light trim. Now, they look nice and fresh!
Now we are ready to go our favorite store Phydaux to get some presents for Pretz...Yey (*^_^*)
It was little bit overcast outside, but as usual, we took a few pictures outside.
We picked up an Acana dog food sample (they get to try new food today!) and a new water bowl and food bowls☆ミ Seriously we can stay there all day!
Let me show you what we got for Pretz at the store...
We were looking for a new water bowl for upstairs since Pretz sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night and goes downstairs to get water. Papa found a perfect water bowl for our kids...here it is.
Yes! Pretz can be a trouble-maker eating everything she finds on the floor...WANTED!!!
and Pocky...if you start playing fetch with him, he never stops...WANTED!!!! hahaha
Also I always wanted to get ceramic food bowls for them. Today is the day. Tada~~
I love them! Pocky, today is your lucky day. You got something too even though your May birthday has passed! There you go, it's snack time! Pretz's birthday cake!
Peanuts butter cake, they absolutely love it! Hey guys...why don't you eat it in the bowl...(-_-;) oh well...I don't think they can even hear me right now...
After the snack, it's nap time...
Awweee she is still a baby...She's been through a lot this year...hopefully this year is going to be a little less eventful in that regard. We have nothing more to ask as long as she stays healthy and happy ・:*:・(*´∀`*)・:*:・ Happy Birthday baby girl, Sweet dreams☆ミ

Movie Night + Play Date!

We had a couple of friends over one night with their kids (doggies). We adults watched a movie while the kids were having play date!
Does anyone remember English Bulldog, Lola? The last time she came to our place was four months ago. She was still a small puppy then...
Look how fast she grew up...
She was still acting like a puppy but I was surprised to see how big she became within four months!
Unfortunately Lola's papa had to go home earlier than the rest of our other friends but Lola seemed like she still had a great time with her new friend, Fiona (*^_^*)
It was great to see you Lola! Come back soon!!
The movie continued...and the kids continued playing. I was taking some pictures while they were playing so I missed parts of the movie but it's all good...because I got some great pictures to share...(^^)v
Fiona just turned one year old. She is a very playful and lovable dog・:*:・(*´∀`*)・:*:・I was happy that they wore each other out. They are going to have a good night sleep tonight!
By the way, Fiona has an older brother Charlie (although he is a small one). Everybody is wondering where he is...??Charlie???
Here he is. He was on the couch the majority of the time and watching movie with us. I think he thinks he is one of us...hahaha(^^)
It's getting too late. Time to go bed☆ミ
It was great having you guys. Come hang out with us soon Charlie and .....Fi..o..na...?
(・∀・)...
Awwee she is having too much fun!!
No worries, you guys can come here anytime!
Their happiness is my happiness((o(´∀`)o))

I also had a grooming the next day. He was a Lhasa Apso and Poodle mix named Gavin.
Welcome to our place Gavin\(^o^)/
Pocky and Pretz looked worried as I was preparing for grooming in the afternoon because they thought they were the ones who were getting groomed hahahaha. Well lucky for them this time. Gavin got his body shaved and a teddy bear face this time.
He was singing while I was clipping his nails. Too funny Gavin! Now he looks like a stuffed animal. Doesn't he just make you want to hug him?? If you do, he may sing for you too❤

BirthdayS

Last week was one of THE social events of the year. Three of my girls' birthdays are August first, second, and third!
It doesn't matter if your birthday is on a normal weekday, we will still do it up! Happy Birthday!
All the doggies were of course included (*^_^*) While we enjoyed our drinks and dessert, doggies were having a play date; their favorite time!
Fortunately, the weekend was great weather, so we all took a trip to Bluemont Wine Yard in VA for a birthday wine tasting tour!
The place was absolutely beautiful and a great view・:*:・(*´∀`*)・:*:・ Let's get started!
We were able to taste eight different kind of wines; three white, three red, and two dessert wines. Some cheeses and bread to go with it; it was just perfect!
Birthday girl gave us a toast (^^)
After the tasting, of course we got more bottles to keep the party keep going '`,、('∀`) '`,、
I still didn't forget to take a picture of our precious kids☆ミ Thank you for your cooperation kids!
Now back to the party...
I could do this every weekend hahaha
We were there a good half of the day...now it's time to go get some real dinner. Korean BBQ??? Yummmm
Everybody was napping in the car and so did the kids. They seemed like they had a great time there too.
No worries Pretz go back to sleep. I will wake you up when we get home (*^_^*) I'm about to take a nap too...Zzzzz....

Charlie is Back!

Look who is in the house. Charlie is back!
Before Charlie's mom gets busy with school, she wanted him to look nice and fresh ☆
Hi Charlie, it's very good to see you back(^^)
I gave him the usual summer cut with puppy face( ´ー`) tada~~~
He gave me a model look in the end. Perfect ・:*:・(*´∀`*)・:*:・so cute ❤
Stay cool Charlie and see you soon!


I also had two other pooches come in. One was a Maltese and Poodle mix named Maggie.
She was the tiniest maltese mix I've ever seen! And oh boy, the biggest, prettiest eyes!!
Maggie's parents wanted a teddy bear (puppy) cut and I thought that would be the perfect hair cut for her too!
After the cut, she looked even tinier. She makes me want to put her in my purse and take her everywhere I go(*^_^*) See you around Maggie!


The last pooch was a Bichon Frise named Pierre.
Due to excessive mats, we decided to shave him down and start over this time.
I think he still looks handsome with shaved hair (^^♪ But our goal is to give him an official Bichon Frise hair cut as his hair grows back. I'll see you in eight weeks Pierre!


Everybody looks clean and fluffy, I think it's about the time for you guys to get a grooming isn't it Pocky and Pretz??
...Of course you guys didn't hear anything...(-_-;) well you guys have no choice!
