Happy 1st Birthday Sophie!

There are few things more rewarding than seeing dogs we've helped in the past living the good life with their new families. One of our more rambunctious foster dogs, Bea, found her way into an amazing home with her new mom Linda where she became Sophie. Linda is the mother-in-law of one of my best friends so it was an added bonus that we'd get to continue hearing stories of Sophie's antics. Oh the stories we heard. After a few months of Sophie hinting that she was bored and needed a friend, Linda adopted Pebbles who is now Sadie. Pebbles was another Mid Atlantic Bully Buddies dog that was in the rescue for a good amount of time before landing in luxury at Linda's house! Sophie and Sadie are now the best of friends!

Linda decided to throw Sophie a 1st birthday party and when I got the invitation I was thrilled! Nick was, well, he came and he actually had a blast. The dogs all had a great time running around and eating their doggy birthday cake, regardless of how much I burnt it. The weather was gorgeous, everyone loved each other, Bella scared Sadie with her gremlin noises, and at the end of the day we had seven exhausted, happy dogs. Success! Happy Birthday Sophie!

Birthday Girl!

The party hats were a hit!
And of course there's Piglet, who can't quite figure out the party hat..


Let them eat cake!

We have tired dogs, finally!

Thank you Linda, we all had a wonderful time and really enjoyed celebrating Sophie's birthday with her! Thank you for giving her and Sadie such a wonderful life! I hope Sophie slept for at least a few hours after we left :)
