Niko (1, a boy) is very much a tiger in his own mind. He even likes prowling his domain, at least to a certain extent. And he sure loves introducing himself to the rest of the community. Niko is not shy!

Bernadoodles are nearly as ‘happy stoner of the dog world’ as golden retrievers are. Gusgus, who will be two in April, is no exception.
So okay hear me out: a one-year-old dog is about similar to a twelve year old kid: almost finished getting taller, not finished filling out, physically able to do most things an adult can but sooooo not ready to actually be an adult. So it just makes sense to me that a one-year-old dog should get twelve birthdays, and that equals one a month, and so Finley, who was born seven months ago today, is having a birthday today, and this is a hill that I will die on.
(Sorry, next week I’ll have a cat for you on caturday but this was important.)
I first ran into Rufus a year and a half ago, when he was one year old, when he was but a wee pre-puli with no dreadlocks at all. Today he looks a lot different!
