Dickens is Three Years Old!

Yesterday my big Dickens turned three. We had a good time celebrating; just the two of us, since Mama was out-of-town, and Callie the Schipperke couldn't make it from Ridley Park. Dickens was regaled with lots of nice treats, including Sheltie Jerky, Beef Chunks, a nice turkey neck, a big bag of Stinky Liver Treats, a new Kong, and a beef esophagus, which he didn't eat, but played with all evening.

Some say Dickens is spoiled, and perhaps he is, in a way, but is it being spoiled if you actually deserve everything you get? Dickens is beautiful, gentle, obedient, and never obtrusive or underfoot. To top it off, he's intelligent, strong and healthy. I'm as taken by him now as I was three years ago!

Here's the big guy, in a playful humor:

Happy Birthday Dickens!!

Also... I find nothing wrong with spoiling him. I tend to do that with my Cleo all the time!
 
Happy Birthday Dickens, such a stunning little man you are. Your daddy asks . . . "is it spoiling if he deserves it?" No, it is not! I love all the wonderful things your daddy says about you, I felt the same way about my beautiful girl Bambi and treated her just as well also. These sweet, kind souls ask absolutely nothing of us but love, food and shelter, provide that and they will be more than you could EVER ask for. Throw in unconditional love and you get back 100 fold. Congratulations Dickens on having that special human that understands and gets it all and because of that you benefit in all ways that matter. :yes: :hugs

I'm sorry to have been so lengthy but for some reason today, I am really missing my sweet Angel and your post just struck a cord with me. :cry:

It's perfectly understood. I love my Dickens, but somewhere inside I'm saddened by the thought that someday I will lose him.

On the bright side, Dickens finally ate his Barky Bark beef esophagus! Yay! I've been trying to get him to chew more, to help keep his teeth clean!

Thanks to all for the kind thoughts and wishes!
