Happy Birthday, Dash!

Dash was one today. Already? It doesn't seem possible.

It was one of those warm, gorgeous, blue sky kind of days that are so rare in late November. Family members stopped by and played with the Birthday Boy and his new toys.

Dash's birthday gifts included an agility tunnel (which he's not at all sure about), glow-in-the-dark flying discs, and his favorite, a glow-in-the-dark Orbee Tuff-Ball from Planet Dog. (Do you detect a theme here?). He cannot get enough of that ball. It's sturdy with a very satisfying heft, mint-scented, and whistles a little when you throw it. I may have to get another to put in his stocking!

We met friends at the Gateway Agility Club Trial and had a great time watching the classes. We talked with some of the Corgi people who were entered, and some who were spectators. Dash played with Matilda, a cute Australian Shepherd puppy. (Dash's idea of heaven!)

Later, we shared a birthday lunch at an outdoor cafe. In between bites of (the inside of) his turkey sandwich, my very social dog visited with customers and employees.

We wrapped up the evening around the outdoor fireplace...with some games of glow-in-the-dark fetch, of course.

Here's to many more birthdays, Little Man!
