The Birthday

And today, Todd is turning two......
Time has flown so by fast and my puppy is now 2 years old.  Today I am recalling those memories of the first time I saw the photos of a litter of puppies that were so innocent and brand new.  I remember so vividly how I felt knowing that one of the little boys would be ours. Todd has been everything that I wanted when we decided to get a puppy. Todd has added spark and laughter to what was an otherwise quiet life.  

For Todd, life is serious, and met with dignity, reserve and a stout heart. He is by nature aloof, but to his accepted friends, family and pack members his devotion is deep.  In spite of his independent spirit, Todd's strong desire for approval has won his compliance with our wishes.  It goes without saying that I love this most unique character and his high spirit.  Todd is truly a friend and a companion, second to none.  

Thank-you, Lynn at Rocky Creek Scotties 
for allowing us to give a home to one of your most special Scotties!     

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TODD!!
