Happy
7th Birthday
Sweetcakes!
November
2, 2000
Our lovable
little Pekingese, Sweetcakes, is 7 years old! Time flies by so quickly!
Sweetcakes is just a little darling of a dog - she has her own unique personality.
She is definitely an A#1 watchdog. Upon hearing any strange sound,
anyone outside of our door, the doorbell, etc., she is there barking frantically
to let whomever or whatever know that she is there to protect her hoomins
and her home! Now look at this fierce-looking, scary face - isn't
it enough to scare any burglar away? HeHeHe!!!
Sweetcakes
is a parti-color Pekingese and is very pretty. Parti-color means
that she is mostly white with colored patches on her body, but any patches
on her back must be broken. She has a number of different expressions
and cocks her head at different words we say, like bye-byes, Grandmom,
or boog (another word for bug). Sweetcakes is the resident bug catcher
(and eater! yuck!). As soon as she sees us coming over to her to
get the bug out of her mouth, she crunches and swallows before we have
a chance to do so. I guess she just has a taste for exotic food.
---Happy
Birthday to Sweetcakes!
Although
Sweetcakes has hip dysplasia, she can still run around with her sidekick,
Jellybean, at about 70 miles per hour! I guess that's pretty good
for 7 years old. I don't know if they still go by the rule that for
every year of a dog's life, it is 7 years of a human life. If so,
that would make her 49 years old. We just hope that she stays healthy
and strong and does not develop any problems with arthritis or walking
as she ages.
Here
are a few pics of Sweetcakes that we have acquired over the years, from
puppyhood up to the present.

She
loves attention!

her alligator squeaky toy.
It
doesn't seem to matter to her
that
the Frisbee is almost as big as she is!
Sweetcakes
says, "And I though I was having a bad hair day!"
Now
where are my sunglasses?!

she
got for her birthday to a safe

Well,
thanks for visiting and sharing in Sweetcakes' birthday
celebration.
We hope you enjoyed your stay!
