My Sixth!

Just came in from taking my birthday toy for a walk. It is a fuzzy yellow duck that sings Old Macdonald Had A Farm...with a Quack!Quack! here & a Quack!Quack! there...and it is still alive, unlike the fluffy dog that barked Christmas carols last year. I also got a new water dish that is black & covered with red hearts to replace the $60 handpainted-with-hearts bowl that mom kept kicking until the rim was chipped all the way ’round. The Dog Mother has a thing for hearts...and clumsy feets.

Yummiest of all, I got a nice big piggy ear. What a treat! It has to be a big occasion for me to get one of those -- and I pay no attention at all when mom tells me that somewhere there is a little pig chewing on a puppy dog ear.

Best, best, best of all...I got lots of birthday congrats from my doggie friends. THEY didn’t forget!

PS -- I am sure that there was lots of other stuff in that bag but seems that I have to wait for Christmas to find out WHAT IS IN THE BAG!!!
