Happy Birthday, Sam!

Guess who has a birthday today?
Me!
 It's hard to believe that my little wild pup has grown up to be such a gentleman...
Puppy Sam in his popcorn bowl.
We've had so many adventures since those days!
He was so much trouble he had to wear a bell and a leash at all times!
We got Sam a Halloween sock monkey since he has a thing for those monkeys! Monty got a crinkly ghost.
Monty is in this picture.... 
I'm not sure what his antibiotics and others meds are doing with his stomach, so I opted to give him a mild treat of scrambled eggs and Moose cookies.  I found the moose cookies at Wag N' Wash here in Phoenix.  One of our first blog posts had to do with bringing Sam a moose back from Idaho - back when we trying to figure out how to blog.  It seemed fitting to find these cookies. 
Moose & Eggs
Sam dove right in and went for dessert first!
Monty being a good boy and leaving dessert for last.
Sam is still resting and seems so much more cheerful today.  We are having an issue with a little seepage from one of his incisions and are keeping a close watch on it. 
I'm doing great!
Happy Birthday, big guy!

    Woo, Sam!!! Happy birthday, buddy! I've never had moose cookies - they look yummy! Mom said I can have extra scrambled eggs for dinner tonight to help celebrate your big day!
    Glad you're starting to be more like the Sam we know and love! (Speaking of love -- Mom just went CRAZY over your baby pix!)
    Party on, dude!
    Luv,
    Dave

    Happy Birthday, dear Sam. You look good so I hope the pain is under control. Great birthday dinner.

    Tell your mom a cheap disposable baby diaper taped to the inside of your shirt is a good way to keep the drainage from damaging the floor while still allowing the area to drain freely.

    PS Obviously with the absorbent side toward your body and the waterproof side toward your shirt.
