Dash turned 16 on June 19th this year, so he got a special cake and birthday trip to a pet store. But this year was a twist, because it was around his actual birthday, that we were unaware of before (he's a rescue). Today's blog has the story and pictures from his birthday this year.
We used to celebrate Dash's birthday in August because we began fostering him that month in 2018 (when he was 10 years old). However, late last year I discovered one piece of paper from the shelter where we fostered him from, that indicated a mid-June birthdate (but now specific day). So, although there was no exact birthdate, we gave him JUNE 19th, because it's my (Rob) mom's birthdate, and my parent's wedding anniversary date.
BIRTHDAY CAKE!
Dash's uncle Jeff is a pastry chef and brought over specially baked treats and a doggy-cake made with pumpkin. It was a 2-tier cake and Dash, Tyler, Cody and Jeff's dog, (Cousin) Myrtle all enjoyed a piece of cake.
PET STORE TRIP!!
It is a tradition in our house that whenever one of the kids is celebrating a birthday we take them to the pet store to pick out toys and treats. So, we drove to nearby Pet Supplies Plus and Dash got to walk around the massive store, sniffing out favorites. He settled on chicken jerky treats (which he loves, but it takes him a while to eat because he only has 8 teeth left), and softer chicken treats.
