Happy Birthday!
I usually take them for a hike if the weather's nice or for a car ride if it's not. Then the birthday pup gets a leeeeetle bit of vanilla ice cream.

Happy Birthday! Cool set of numbers 01/11/2011 (I like number sequences).
Minka was born 05/11/2010 (number sequence is not as cool as your dog's sequence) but anyhow that tangent aside, today was Minka's 20 month old date so we took a 3 hour hike in the hills, woods, fields and stream of Columbia County Wisconsin, to celebrate. This DNR (state owned) land is very close to where I used to live when I had my other two GSD. Back then, we practically lived there taking hikes every single day! My dogs thought the DNR property WAS their property  Minka loves the relaxation of just being a dog - smelling all the wildlife, investigating animal hideaways, occasionally snacking on animal poop when I'm not looking . . . and we use the fallen trees, standing tree, rocks etc. as a natural agility course. I bring a ball and chuck-it along so she can get some good fetching in too. So that is how we most like to celebrate birthdays and semi Bdays - excursions into the wilds of Wisconsin! |

Happy B-Day!!! i normally celebrate my dogs
B-Day by buying a toy or a bone for him. a steak dinner is nice also but your dog will appreciate a hug, petting or a good boy/Happy B-Day salutation.

Happy Birthday pretty girl. Wishing for you many, many more. Anything that you can do to make her feel a little special today would be fine.

 I usually take the birthday pup on a special alone time hike or play session. We have a birthday party in the evening. I make a cake and get presents like chewies, toys and balls. After eating cake, they all have a crazy play session with the new toys. I usually groom the birthday pup a few days beforehand and make them pretty on their special day. The girls do get bows in their fur lol  Just be careful with the birthday treats. It doesn't take much to upset a dog's stomach so don't feed a lot of something super rich and fatty. Otherwise your pup and you will have a bad birthday night full of emergency bathroom trips
