The Rocket's Celebrate their Third Birthday

I always think it is fun that their birthday falls on National Puppy Day!

This bunch is blessed with wonderful owners and I rec'd a great response to the annual Happy Birthday email when I sent it around.

Redstone's birthday report: "3 and going strong. Redstone is still the favorite in our house and Carver's best friend. He often reminds us to feed him with a friendly bark, sometimes 5 or 6 times a day. We are working on his ability to tell time. Normal sleeping pose below. He can't seem to sleep upright."

 Luna's family reports: "Luna has her submarine piloting lesson on Monday so she'll definitely have a very fun day tomorrow.  When she's not following me into the bathroom or... everywhere, Luna mostly hangs out under our 2 year old's high chair at meal times. She provides essential family support in the form of floor clean up duty.  

Thanks again, Suzanne, for breeding such a sweet, healthy group of pups and for staying in touch!

Happy birthday Rocket Litter"

Arlene and Keith reported in: "Atlas is still a pup in his mind! He is so affectionate and lavishes love on all his "familiars" . He is gradually learning not worry so much about the unfamiliar. We have been going to class and helping him to enjoy different environments. Lots of improvements and his comfort level is expanding. Sunny day and we are off for a birthday hike. We are going to Tammy's tomorrow to help set up her new agility course---- a new challenge for Atlas!  Thanks again for entrusting him to us. He brings us lots of joy!"

Lani's report: "Lani will celebrate her birthday at her Monday night agility class. She loves agility, is very enthusiastic & fast. Almost as enthusiastic  for agility as for water work. She will start a rally class next week. She is very smart, catches on fast, she trained Jerry & my dad how & when to play fetch with her.  Still says Whoo Whoo lots & greets us in the am or when we have been out with a stuffed toy.

Thanks for such a sweet girl!"

From Delta: "Delta gets to go to her agility lesson every Monday, so she will have a fun birthday outing there.  Then perhaps she will get a special chew treat after dinner...  We had to adjust her harness out a few inches recently so I think she is completely filled out/matured now physically although she acts like an overgrown puppy still."
