Mokey turned 1 year old last Sunday! Of course we had to have a mini celebration :)
Her 'cake' was really just a mash up of tuna, chicken, non-fat yogurt & sweet potato and while that sounds wholly unappealing to me, she loved it.
At times it feels like this year with Mo has gone by really fast, but sometimes slowly too. Even though she has issues with fear and reactivity, having her in our lives has been much more stress free than with Kilo. Obviously there has been some stress, worry and expense while I've tried to deal with her anxiety but it hasn't been the constant, aching worry we had with Kilo. Mokey has certain identifiable triggers and while she requires medicine and specific handling techniques there's hope she can eventually grow comfortable with them. Plus, I never worry about her interactions with family members - sure, she might give them a good-natured glomping now and then but she's never offered to bite or act aggressively with us. At home she's affectionate and silly. She likes to flirt with her treats and new toys, expects a drink from the tub faucet every time you go in, and is still completely in love with her baby pool. So, happy birthday Mokey - we look forward to many more!| Mokey - she was soo little! |
She's still just a baby, however big or old she may be and she still thinks she can fit on our laps. Love her silly antics and can't imagine how dull our home would be without her to keep us on our toes. Chase would be so lonely too! So, Happy Birthday To the Big Bad Baby! ; )
ReplyDeleteWow - Quite a change in just one year! That's a great looking dog cake. Bet she loved it!
