      I celebrate both her Birthday and Gotcha day. I buy her toys and all natural dog treats from my local pet bakery. She is 11 this year, and she has brought me so much joy since I rescued her.

      She gets a special treat and we sing her happy birthday. We celebrate her gotcha day and her birthday on the same day. We don’t know her exact birthday since she’s a rescue. We were told she was a year old when we adopted her.

      Last year, as all 3 girls birthdays are close together, we had an afternoon tea  & they had a special dinner & a little dog cupcake each

      I do a special photo shoot each year so I always have it to look back on. I also make them a cake and give them some special treats and lots of extra love that day. my little princess will be five in a few weeks and we just did her birthday shoot this morning.

      Dinner, cake, gifts. Just like my kids lol And no they don’t eat a cake. Just a tiny bit. They are 14 and 19 so they deserve it.

      To celebrate each birthday I make sure my dogs get to see their best friends both 2 legged and 4. They don’t get many so you have to make each year as special as possible.

      We celebrate our fur baby Angel on the day we got her because are not sure when her birthday really is because we got her from a family who mistreated her. So we celebrate with treats and pup cup and some gifts. She will be 4 in October.

      She has presents and special treats. Then we go to one of her favourite places for the days with more special treats. Then the nearest training day to her birthday she takes special treats to the club for her friends.

      I spoil my dog every day. But on his birthday I take her out for a longer ride. Once a week at least I take her out for a short ride

      Well, she is treated like a queen every day, so I guess every day is her birthday.
      Also, I adopted her from the county shelter and her age was only a guess. My vet estimated 9 or 10. That was 6 years ago. Still going strong.

      My girl celebrated her 15th in January. We had a K-9ceanera (quinceanera is the equivalent of a sweet 16, but for 15 in certain Hispanic countries). We hired mariachis for it. It was a blast. She wanted none of my shenanigans, but it sure was fun to see how many of my friends who showed up. I lost Etta James on the 24th. I miss her greatly. She was the BEST!

      Same way I celebrate him every day! Love, hugs, treats, sleeping in the bed with me, on the couch me, and telling him how much I love him!
