    Did you make up any of your pets birthdays?

    I made up Sprinkles (Dec. 29), Tiny (Aug. 24), Cocoa (May 5), Heavon & Sky (Oct. 23), Daphney & Whino (March 26), Triskit & Scout (Jan. 6) and Minnie (April 16)

    Not any of the current pets.

    All three of my Border Collies have made up Birthdays as they were all shelter dogs so I just use their gotcha days as their birthdays. Bozy was for sure born in June of 01 but I don't have the exact date. Cody is the only one that has a real birth date, 12/29. She'll be three.

    I don't think anything of giving my pets a birthday.

    I don't even remember the day I got them, I do know how old they are about tho.

    yep, for the shelter pooches we take the age listed on the form, with the date on the form do some math and back date from there and stick it on the 1st day of that month, that is why both Ripley and Perky have bithdays that land on the 1st, Ripley we have on June 1st and Perkys on October 1st. Shadow's we did similer, we hadnt known how old she was when our neighbor found her wandering the back ally, we just guessed and chose the date of June 3rd as her birthday, in her case we chose the 3rd because 3 is my faverite number lol

    the rest of my dogs b-days are very exact, for example Blair was the last in his litter born, he was not born till after midnight, making him born on augest 24th and not the 23rd like all his littermates lol

    Yes. Except for Marta and Vallis the other's birthdays are just guesses.

    yes, Niņo, 8 months before the day we adopted him. Oslo has his on his pedigree, and Tigger doesn't have one. (She was born obviously but I don't reccognize it.

    All we know about Winston and Piper's birthdays are the months, so we just say that their birthday is on the first of June and the first of May.

    No one's birthday is certain except for Frisk's(Oct. 29th, 2000) & Don's(July 14th, 2006).. as they both came from a breeder.
    Everyone else's is just made up to the closest estimate that we could find..

    I know Missy and Laylas real birthdays. Lacey and Sassy as well as RB Mandy were made up by how old they were suppose to be, according to the shelter and/or vet. Say Sassy was approximately 6 weeks old when I found her, I went back on the calender 6 weeks and made that day her birthday.
