On January 27 the Weenies celebrated their 7th birthday. Here are a few photos taken at the celebration. |
The birthday cake consisted of a fresh-baked blueberry muffin, whipped cream, and two Dentastix |
Where did the "cake" go?.... and where did Amber go? |
Nothing left but crumbs! |
Too Much Party? |

A SMALL SPOT FOR THE OLD GUY |
Sweet Reno is the oldest member of the "11-Pack". He will turn 16 on July 19. His last annual checkup in December revealed no problems other than severe arthritis, and the fact that he is getting quite senile and forgetful. Some days he can hardly get up and walk and other days he gets that burst of energy where there is no stopping him, as in the following video. |
Reno has a very good appetite for an old guy. But....at times it seems he has forgotten how to eat (or else he is very spoiled.) Here is a photo of my friend, Cheryl, spoon-feeding Reno. This has now become a nightly ritual at our house. Reno waits for me to sit and feed him with a spoon. |
Tucker has had his share of health problems over the last couple of years. But he has never stopped enjoying a good fight with the water hose. When my friend, Cheryl, was visiting us from Washington State recently, she took this video of Tucker enjoying the water hose. He will still lay on the first step of the pool to cool off, but I no longer allow him to swim with his brother due to him not having the strength to swim as well as he used to. |
TUCKER IN ACTION |
BREAKING NEWS IN 2011 |
Amber was given a small spot on my last Picture and Update page of 2010 to introduce a few of her friends in Blogville. In January of 2011 I finally gave in to her constant begging to start a blog of her very own. We have met many new friends in Blogville....both furry and the people who love them. The pets laugh together, cry together, and come together to help each other in times of need. The outpouring of support is unbelievable. Amber is a busy girl, but she does try to do at least two or three posts to her blog every week. Please click the picture below to visit Amber DaWeenie's blog and then just close the blog page to return to this page. For future reference, there is also a link to Amber's blog at the top of our Home Page. |
