A Birthday Wish for my Sheltie Brother


Dear Dakota,

 I normally don't get all mushy and gushy when it comes to talking about you. Well, I don't get all mushy and gushy when talking about much of anything, but today, and ONLY today I am going to make an exception.

 Today is your TENTH BIRTHDAY, you old woofie you!!!!! You beat me!! I won't be ten for a little over a month so you beat me! You are OLDER!! No one would ever know that since I rule around here...but I digress. I said I will be nice today, and I am going to honor my promise because I am a cat of my word!



I remember the day that Mom and Dad first brought you home. They were all nervous that we wouldn't get along, but I circled your crate, hissed at you once to let you know just WHO is the boss around here and from that day on we have been the BEST of friends!!

 Since today is your 10th birthday I am going to list a few  things that I like ok LOVE, about you, (I originally tried to come up with TEN but I couldn't!! I have "9 ish" MOL!!)

You always make me feel better when I have to go to the Vet and I am lucky enough that you came along with me. (Wish isn't always the case!)


When I am at the Vet and you aren't, you miss me and wait for me to come home.
Every time that YOU get a treat, I get one too!

 You are fun to play with
You are the BEST "food tag team member" for Mom and Dad EVER!

 You are great company when Mom and Dad aren't home
You are great company when Mom and Dad ARE home! (They are boring!)

 You are one sensitive Sheltie
You get in more trouble than I do...oh wait, that isn't true. I get in WAY more trouble than YOU do!


You may be a woofie, but you are the BEST woofie brother that I could ever hope for!!!

 Wishing you the BEST 10th birthday ever my dear brother!!! Enjoy this mush and gush today cause tomorrow it all goes back to normal!!!

 Love, Cody

      thank you so much!!! It means a lot to us. It made us kind of sad that many, many dog blogs we follow never went over to say Happy Birthday to Dakota on his blog. More cats are over there than dogs. It made us feel quite sad. We thank you so much! I guess cats are more into birthdays than dogs lol

    Oh, that touched my little kitty heart and I am in LOVE with your brother and hope you will lend him out every now and then so that we can play together, too. WHERE do you get that puzzle and does your kitty DO IT???? Or maybe brother....

      thank you so much!!!!! Ohhhh want to come pick him up now? MOL!!! Actually, he is off being groomed...if you don't tell Mom and Dad, you can come and get him after!! MOL!! The puzzle is from Nina Ottosson (I probably screwed up the spelling of her name but if you Google her the correct spelling will pop up!) Cody doesn't play it, but.........I should try it sometime and see if Cody can figure it out. Dakota figured it out in 30 seconds or less!!
