Happy FIRST Birthday Kaige!! NEW PICS bottom of page 2

[lv4dogs]

Where oh where does time go? My baby boy is one year old already. His birthday was special it was on Memorial Day this year and he was lucky enough to celebrate it with a bunch of other PT'ers on Findlay this past weekend. Sorry this thread is a little late, we were out of state celebrating!!!

In just this short year alone he has provided me with some of the best times. He's so friendly, funny, loving, caring, loyal & obedient. He's always there for me and always more than happy to put a smile on my face many many many times a day. I can not imagine my life without him.

Here he is, just one day old:

5 weeks old, the first time I got to see & hold him in person. Look, he's claiming my camera bag already.

10.5 weeks old, the last moment at his breeders

my favorite picture of him:

I will be adding more pics at the begining of next week from the trip to the petstore & all of his goodies from this weekend and maybe some more of him from Ohio, from the actual big PT bash! I'm uploading them to Zoto right now & it is taking forever for the 340+ pictures I took. (so far about 45 minutes and only 103 are loaded) and I have to get back to work!
So for now, here's a few from his b-day in Ohio! )sorry none from the PT meeting just yet).

Sleeping during the ride (he slept like this a LOT, I have a few pics of him like this). Now I actually have a few wittnesses that he does sleep sitting up.

Picking pics for this thread was so hard, I wanted to put all of them here. lol
He has received no toys from me... yet. Due to our vacation we decided to wait until we get back to get him some goodies. Kaige will be taking a Birthday trip to the pet store this weekend to pick out some new toys (we already have a TON of treats don't worry).

[Lori Jordan]

[Roxyluvsme13]

Holy cow, a YEAR already?! Well, I'm sure you'll get plenty of new toys, and have tons of fun at the Petstore, Kaige! ;)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

[lv4dogs]

Anna, yup and I am know that Roxey had a great birthday too! :D


Happy birthday! You're going to make me cry with all these "first" pictures.
I know, I've made myself teary eyed multiple times already.


Awww Happy Birthday wanna trade ill take Kaige for a week and you can have Lacy ????
Now normally I would say no, but since I LOVE your dogs and it is only one week, that would be do-able, of course you, your house & family members would be screened, but one week I could deal with. As long as you give him back! :D (now that would be a real PT swap, we swap animals lmao)


Well, I'm sure you'll get plenty of new toys, and have tons of fun at the Petstore, Kaige
He always enjoys the petstore, now that he can get multiple toys at one time I'm sure he will think this is the best trip ever. He always has fun anyways, it doesn't matter what he's doing, he's always happy.

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

Happy Birthday, Kaige!!!

He's sure a beautiful Aussie, all of the pictures are great. I especially loved the one of him sleeping while sitting...lol.

[JenBKR]

Happy Happy birthday sweet Kaige! You were the cutest puppy, and what a sweet boy you've grown into! Hope mommy spoils you rotten for your birthday (and I know she will!)

[cyber-sibes]

Happy birthday again, Kaige!
Sue, I love seeing all the photos of Kaige, it's been fun watching him "grow up"!
It was really a treat to meet him "live"!

[Toby's my baby]

Happy Birthday Kaige!! Looks to me like you didn't enjoy your first snow too much ;) But looks like you LOVE that big bed all to yourself!! :D From what I heard, you had a great birthday!! I can't believe it has already been a year. You sure are handsome! :D

[Roxyluvsme13]

Aww, hehe, silly Kaige :p.

[cyber-sibes]

Looks like Kaige had a wonderful birthday! LOL- in your picture, Nanook looks like Sherman from the back!

[k9krazee]

Aww, I love the group shot! Kyra absolutely loves those huge balls too...but they only last about 3 seconds before she pops it :o

[vinjashira]

I can't believe he's a year already :eek:

Happy Birthday Kaige!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

1 already! Happy Birthday sweet Kaige

[buttercup132]

Lol Kaige your a silly boy!

[lv4dogs]

Aww, I love the group shot! Kyra absolutely loves those huge balls too...but they only last about 3 seconds before she pops it :o

This size seems to be holding up pretty well. (knock on wood) The next size smaller (more common size) only lasts him about 3 seconds too. lol

[anna_66]

Oh Kaige, it really looks like you hit the jackpot with the birthday gifts! And that ball...oh man isn't it fun?! Does Raustyk like that new big ball of yours? I know Angus would have been in heaven (well at least for a few seconds before he popped it:)).
Glad to see you had such a wonderful day boy, you sure deserve it!

[RobiLee]

Wow, Kaige, looks like you really hit the jackpot! What a great birthday it was for you. Glad I get to see some more pics of you. I love that big green ball. Looks like you are having a blast with it. Hmm, wonder if my girls would pay any attention to it if I got them one. ;)

{{HUGS}}

[Anita Cholaine]

I'm so sorry that I missed your birthday thread, Kaige :o I really hope you had a great day, dear boy! :D

Thanks for posting those pics, Sue! They are adorable!

[beeniesmom]

Happy Belated Birthday Kaige! This thread brought tears to my eyes.
They grow so fast. Frankie man turned 1 a couple of weeks ago and I, like you, was going though the baby pictures.... what a difference a month makes for them. Have a great day Kaige.
