Happy Psychomuppet Day!

Our Voodoo is five. Five.
I don't know how it happened.
He was supposed to be my brother's pup, but found his way here into the Chaos household.
Michael named him.
I swore no more puppies- adult dogs only.
After Puppy X was here a few days, I asked to keep him.
Michael said, "That pup worked some serious voodoo on you!".

Voo added a WHOLE 'nother level of chaos!
(Seriously, if you want to know what young Llewellin Setters are like...give a toddler amphetamines and a couple pounds of sugar.  No.  Really.  Truly.)

I can't imagine not having his crazy muppet head within easy reach of my fingertips as we wander around the yard, or feeling him sigh in contentment when I rest my feet on him under the computer desk (where he is right this moment).

Plus, he's got my permanent bed head ;)

Happy birthday, my psychomuppet!
His birthday toy.


Having a tantrum.





My Akita loves to swim.  We must have broken her. ;)

Strider and Henry are pro loungers.


In honor of Voo's birthday, we didn't cut grass or replace the fence when we got home from town.
 We played!

    Yeah! Happy Birthday, Voo!

    I learned along the way that the most difficult puppies make the most wonderful dogs. I'm glad you're enjoying the more mature Voodoo now, and that all that work paid off.

    I laughed all the way through this tribute to your dogs. Wow. And I have had dogs all my life but it was a super big heartbreak when the last one died. Autumn Eve.

    But I am at least talking about a new dog. My wife no longer objects violently (because she ends up being the person who takes them to be put down when that time comes). So a new dog may be in our future.

    Thanks for your visit to my blog.

    Great dog shots! And I love the new dog toy! I'm looking for something my puppy Latte can't tear to bits in a couple hours but is more interesting than hard rubber. Java so misses our pool (as do I). The best I can do for her now is to put in a shallow pond or drag out a kiddie pool. The poor girl wants to swim laps.
