Happy Birthday Fred!

It is almost impossible for me to wrap my head around the fact that Fred is 6 years old.

I thought that I would share some photos with him, starting from the day I brought him home May 5th, 2008.

 You can read about it here

Then it was like I blinked and he was no longer a puppy.

He's always looking forward to company.

At this point, Buddy the cat was still not very pleased about the "new comer". Fred didn't give up though, and they really did become friends. You can read the story of how Buddy became an outside cat Here

My beach loving boy!

 Beach Trip

Praying to the space heater gods... then

 and now... (some things never change)

 He can be found here every morning.

Basking in the sun

Always a snuggle bug

Our attempts at socializing in the dog park. The story of drooler boy is here

Hiking however, is a whole different story. These are good times! Here is the story about this one.

 I think he's a bit irritated because someone is standing on his leash. I love the face though!

Freddy the famous flying dog!

This is just something silly he does every time he comes in from doing "big business", I have no idea why, but for some reason he has to do laps in the house afterwards. I guess it's quite exhilarating...

He's a pretty good sport when it comes to costumes. This one worked for the 4th and Halloween.

Not a big fan of the water, he prefers the raft.

Or snow, he wouldn't leave the porch.

But he did when he had to go.

He couldn't wait to get back in the house

A bit possessive when it comes to his things...

These are just some of my favs.

I hope you enjoyed this little look back.



Happy Birthday Freddy! You truly are my very best friend!
