Heehee! As I was looking at that first picture I was thinking "Squishykisses!" - I guess that is the appropriate blessing after all! Give him lots from me - you know I just adore that dog. :)

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

He's very very adorable. And technically grown up, apparently - I find that very hard to believe!

Thank you!

Honey I keep thinking of Allie as a puppy, and she's 13 freaking years old! I know exactly how you feel, and when he's blue eyes and grey bearded you're probably still going to have trouble believing it, because I have trouble believing Squishy's ever going to feel grown up too. :)

Yay for meatballs and happy birthday Squishy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

BIG HAPPY TAILWAGS!!!!

I'll stop him kissing you on account of the hives :-D

[intaglio-road.livejournal.com]

Happy Birthday Squish! Enjoy your meatballs!

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

Oh, he DID!! I defrosted seven so Spike could have some too, but Spike was fixating on a cat and wasn't interested, so Meatball McSpotted-Dog got them ALL!

[hopefulnebula]

So? It's his birthday. He deserves meatballs.

Happy Birthday, Squish! Whatta love.

Love the pics, Liz! And daaang, Blade's (in 4th pic) gonna be a big one!

Thanks for sharing Squish's b-day with us. :^D

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

Blade is gargantuan - he's easily twice Shona's size and weighs roughly as much as Cassie now, at least as far as I can judge by picking both up. And he has huge paws. I guess he takes after his dad because he's nothing like his Mum.

Squishy thanks you with kisses :-D

Happy Birthday Mr. Squishy! September's a good month for birthdays, we have three (Theo, me, and Crow in that order). ;)

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

I admit, it's a notional birthday in Squish's case, based on how old we were told he was and a pin in the calendar - we could be weeks out in either direction. but I like September birthdays - mine is this month too.

thank you :)

When's Crow's?

[bloolark.livejournal.com]

When's yours? :)

Theo will be 17 tomorrow, I'll be 29 next Friday, and the racingist race poodle ever will be one year old on the 19th. :)

Hmmm. I have a Swedish Meatball icon for internet dog treats and a fish head icon for cat treats, but this - originally intended for snide comments during Internet drama - is the closest icon I have to anything a beautiful blue bird might like.

Me - 24th. And I'll be forty this year. Same age as Star Trek, me...

[bloolark.livejournal.com]

Ha ha. :) I don't know when any of the cats were born save for Gus. We're not a big celebrator of birthdays here to be honest, but....

You may be the same age as Star Trek, but I was born on the same date as the premiere -- September 8th. One of my exs was a huge Trekkie, so I know these exciting things about myself. And, I'm sorry to tell you this? But Theo would be all over the meatballs. His favorite thing ever is greasy sausage or pepperoni on pizza, the greasier and unhealthier the better. :)

Hahahaa!!! I love finding out unexpected stuff like that about animals. When John and I hand-reared the orphaned squirrels, we discovered that they went absolutely batshit for fried breaded fish sticks. And my red-tailed hawk used to adore ice cream and would hurt you badly for a cheese sandwich.

oh, and Squish has been attempting to eat acorns lately, since they've been dropping off the trees and the pavements are covered in green ones - so far I've mostly managed to stop him, though. That can't be good for dogs.

Happy Birthday Squi.....oooo....KITTY!!!!!

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

Pfft! Squishy deserves centre of attention today!

[bulletslc.livejournal.com]

Yay! Squishy!!! Three years old is adult for a dog....go out and have a beer!!!! Or at least something stinky and tasty!

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

Adult? Who, me?? NEVER!

[bulletslc.livejournal.com]

LOL! Check out my new post on Apartment_dogs....Ouch! Gdamn CAT!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU BIG BOY Squishy!! have some more meatballs :D

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

He had seven, as well as his supper!

*waggy kissy thanks*

[resqdog51.livejournal.com]

Happy Birthday Squishy!


(i'm so glad i suggested those meatballs -- Jouster says "Welcome kid!")

That's an awesome set of photos!

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

it was an awesome suggestion :)

I usually cut them in pieces for training treats, but he got WHOLE ONES for his birthday treat. Very happy puppy :)

[resqdog51.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. *grin*

Everytime I go get them out of the freezer to cut up for treats for 'later', I have to haul out some extras for 'now' and usually just hand them one whole ball each -- frozen -- to keep them off of me while I get the training treats ready to go.

...Jouster loves them so much, he goes cross-eyed. Its really funny.

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

I need a pic of that!

Squish goes all bouncy and alert, it's the cutest thing. I can't believe he's technically not a puppy any more... he so obviously is...

[miz-geek.livejournal.com]

First couple of posts I hadn't uploaded it. I tried to upload it before the third but it came out as a vertical bar for some reason.

[captain-ice.livejournal.com]
