Big Birthday Booty!

As many of you know my birthday was on Friday and I turned 1! Mom has been super busy with her new job, and dad has been under the weather, so they waited until today to really celebrate. First off I began my Sunday with Spencer....like usual. After our moms got their magical elixir (Starbucks) we were off to Hap McGee park. Mom told us that there would be a surprise for both of us at the park. I told Spencer that maybe they had pulled all the grass out of the park and replaced it with dog treats, so I was bummed when I got to the park and grass was still there. So what could be the surprise?


It was Puglet and Brother Dutch!! I was super happy to see them both. See I totally love my Spencer, but I have a secret crush on Brother Dutch and today he was showing me how he likes to chase his Henrietta chicken. He was super cute, and Pug behaved and didn't eat all the wood chips. We had a blast!


Their mom Miss Amanda gave me some cool toys. Last week at Stubby fest, I tried to play with the lady bug toy, but it was not mine, it was Pug's. So Miss Amanda gave me one of my own, and Dutch gave me my own Dalmatian to take home. I loved that lady bug! I have been nosing it all afternoon and growling at it and jumping on it! It's so much fun. Thanks for my toys guys!!
So for my birthday I want to share the love with everyone. As you know I love to give things away, it's fun to put a smile on a fellow canines face. So here's the thing to do if you want in on the Big Birthday Booty (fest). Post in the comments your favorite birthday present you've ever gotten and why. If you haven't had a birthday yet, or haven't gotten a gift (gasp!), then post what your dream present would be and why. I will take the name of all entrants and pick a winner like last time (by eating the paper). I will close this out on Friday, so that gives everyone plenty of time to reflect. If you multiple dogs in the home (like Puglet does and my Elgin gang bang) everyone can enter separately. This will be awesome!!!

See you all tomorrow for Random Acts of Cuteness.

  2. Oh we love cupcakes! Yum!

    JD's favorite birthday gift was a big stuffed squeaking mouse named Theodore that he just loves to squish and cuddle with.

    Ringo's favorite burthday gift was being adopted! We adopted him just 4 days after he turned 8 years old, and who can ask for a better present that a new home?

  3. Man, I'm still exhausted from today's adventure! Pug and Brother Dutch sure are a good time! I had a blast and I have been lounging ever since
    We got home. Let's see...my favorite gift was my saint keychain with my name and phone number engraved on the back. You gave me that special charm bellybells! I love it.

  4. We are soo bummed out that we missed out on celebrating your birthday today. Our human has a cold & didn't want to get anybody sick. We stole the car (Phoebe steers, Zoey does the gas & brakes)but our human stopped us at the end of the driveway. I told Phoebe not to hit the garbage can-total give away. Anyway she threaten to call the police if we didn't get out of the car. So we stayed home & tried to steal tissues out the garbage. (When did we start this life of crime?)
    We hope that you had a great day & we were wondering if you were going to PugSun SF this weekend. We have a birthday present for you. If not we can send it USPS.
    Luv, Zoey & Phoebe

  5. Hey Bella-T ~

    Superglad you like the lazybug. I thought you might (Dutch likes to pounce on ours and make all the legs go sqweeeeeeeeee!).

    Was much fun hanging out with you + Spencer. I spit out almost as many chips as I ate, so my human says we can totally go back to Hap Magee again. As long as you promise to protect Bro Dutch from the mean stroller lady :(

  7. Hi Bellatrix! What an awesome birthday celebration. Puglet, Dutch, and Spencer are great playmates and I'm sure you guys played really hard.

    Turning one sure has it's perks. I remember my first birthday and it was magical but my best birthday ever was my 12th. My gift was a trip to Barkwells and it was a trip I'll never forget.

    Yum.

  16. Happy birthday Bellatrix!
    We are a multi-pug household, so we have four entries.
    We are Tallulah and Petunia, semi-spoiled 3 year old brats. We don't have that pug love for everyone thing down, but we are working on it.
    Our mom throws a party for us with our friends from the pug meet up and other dog park friends. We get homemade pupcakes, doggy ice cream and games with treats. This year, we asked that our friends bring us donations for Mid-Atlantic Pug Rescue instead of presents. Our generous friends brought us $100 for the rescue! So that's our favorite gift.

    Quincy and Isabelle are foster pugs with Mid-Atlantic Pug Rescue and have been with us since March 2009. We don't really know their birthdays, so we celebrate their rescue day, March 20. Quincy is 11, is a cancer survivor, and is blind. Poor little man only has two teeth left. Isabelle is 10. She's deaf and had crippling arthritis. She's lost a lot of weight since she's been here and now feels 100% better. She only has four teeth left, but that doesn't stop her from chewing on bones.
    Quincy's favorite is doggy ice cream.
    Isabelle's favorite is a meaty bone.
    Hope your birthdays get better and better every year!
