HAPPY BIRTHDAY HENRY!!!

Henry is 10!
It seems like no time has passed since we brought Henry home and he became part of our family. Now, he is TEN YEARS of age!
I purposely omitted the word ‘old.’
Henry is a happy-go-lucky guy who can hold his own when it comes to ‘zoomies’ in the back yard with brother Jack.
Other than his autoimmune issues and allergies, his veterinarian has given Henry a clean bill of health – no age-related problems are evident at this stage.
He isn’t full speed ahead and mischievous as he once was, but he is still quite a character. Perhaps, the secret to his continued youth is his ability to find the perfect balance between play and meditation.
Henry will lay on his bed, with one of his stuffed hippos between his front paws and in his mouth. With eyes closed, he will rock his head gently from side to side and gently caress his hippo. It is hypnotic and calming to watch.
We did not have time to organize a party as we just returned from a family beach holiday. During our time away, our birthday boy enjoyed daily walks in the sand and paddling in the sea. The perfect way to celebrate!
Thank you to Dog’s Best trend for supplying these beautiful scarves for the occasion. Even though the celebration was low-key, the pups were dressed to the nines in their satin party wear.

Ten is just a number. We don’t stop playing because we get older, we get older because we stop playing!


Since we have added another pup to our pack, we have joined the ‘extra toy club’ with barkbox. Not that it makes much of a difference; Reese thinks all the toys belong to her. It’s a good thing Henry loves the packaging as much as the contents and both boys are happy with treats. And, not just on Halloween!!!

The chocolates are for Henry’s Humom!
Thank you barkbox for sending a special ‘Birthday’ celebration hat and treats for the birthday boy.

Thanks Rebecca!
Happy birthday: he looks fantastic for his age
We think he’s pretty darn cute too! Thanks, Kim
Henry looks great! I hope he had a great birthday! The treats and hat look like a lot of fun. Nelly is 9 1/2 years old and I think she is comfortably middle-aged.
Thanks Beth. Yes, much fun was had at Henry’s party!
The saying on the card was really touching – I think every birthday with our four legged friends is worth celebrating. The scarf is precious – I love seeing how folks celebrate milestones for our senior dogs. My 13 year old is lying next to me -moments I cherish! XO
Indeed. We must appreciate them as much as we can.
Happy Birthday Henry you don’t look a day over 5!
Thank you very much!
Happy Happy Happy Birthday Henry, you look so handsome and young for your age
Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙂
