To help me celebrate my 7th Gotcha Day!!
November 13, 2012
Seven years ago my peeps rescued me from death row. I was about 4 months old and in a shelter in Kansas. Nobody wanted me, my days were numbered. My peeps had been looking for a German Shepherd but always seemed to be a day late in getting one. My mom had almost given up and then for some unknown reason she decided to investigate what other types of dogs might be available. That's when she found this picture of me and feel in love...
As you can see I'm a girl who knew what she wanted....
I picked "Woolly Man" as my very first toy.
Just like Goose, I love sticks!!
It is so good to be in a real home where somebody loves me.
So I want you to share my 7th Gotcha Day with me...
We've got lots of yummies
Beggin strips--the bacon kind :)
go ahead and grab a couple
go ahead and grab a couple
dentastix and bubbles
there's lots more and we can play with the bubbles too.
Schatzie made sure there is kibble for everybody
Mom made brownies for you two legged peeps
I don't normally get to sit at the table, so I was feeling
a little uncomfortable in this shot.
I insisted that all the yummies were taste tested.
(all except the brownies--I can't have chocolate)
WOW.... looks at all these presents.....
but these presents aren't for me.
Mom says since I've been in the family for 7 years I can give away 7 Gotcha Day Party Favors!!
All you have to do is leave me a Gotcha Day message in the comment section of this post.
(So all you lurkers out there gotta leave a note to be eligible for the giveaway)
