Happy Birthday Sylvina


The princess celebrated four years on Tuesday. 

Here she is with what she described as the BEST PRESENT EVER - 
a box! A fine box, and it has red crinkly paper inside.

She meowed that this made it an extra special experience.

Like many dogs, Brekke has a strong aversion to storms. She requires a thunder shirt and medication, and long ago determined that my garage is her storm shelter. I put the blankie over her to help calm her. I don't know if it worked. She came over to stand by me. I think people are her answer to scary things.

  2. Happy birthday Sylvina! That is a lovely box.
    Poor Brekke, I hope the storm didn't last long.

  3. Happy belated birthday to Sylvina! That box is a terrific present.

    Ditto, poor Brekke. One of the dogs we had when I was growing up was so scared of thunderstorms that she'd wedge herself under our old claw-foot bathtub. Given her size (about knee-high and 25 pounds), I never understood how she managed that!

  4. Happy BIRTHDAY pretty Princess Sylvina! And Brekke, I know other pet parents who have a scared doggy like you during storms. It's a challenge to both the doggy and to the mom.

    Poor Brekke. Storms are scary, but we are glad you have humans to help you get through them.

  11. Happy belated 4th Birthday, sweet Sylvina. I agree- a box, and especially one with red crinkly paper inside, is the best kind of gift! Poor dear Brekke. Dad feels for Brekke because he said he used to be the same way when he was little. Happy Sunday y'all!!

  12. Going somewhere, Sylvina? I guess Bear is more dog-like in that he comes to me to make sense of things that otherwise would scare him. It's really sweet, actually.
