Happy Birthday Winslow!

Our crazy little pooch turned 7 today. 6 years ago he was found roaming the streets of Philly and the fine folks at the Morris Animal Refuge took him in and cleaned him up. We knew he had some issues when we got him, and that’s probably why we took him in. “Issue” dogs need homes too.

Winnie has never been confused for a “well-trained” dog: He doesn’t play well with other dogs and he bit a couple of my favorite people back in the early days. That said, he has come a long way and has brought a lot of joy and comfort to my little family at times when we really needed it. He loves our girls and loves Grandpa Jack and Grandma Nan, who take him in whenever we need to escape town for a few days.

Happy Birthday pal, you get two Greenies today!

Here’s the day we picked him up at the shelter in 2002. Skinny boy!

Today, eating some birthday cookies, not as skinny.

We made him a cake and Juliette took care of the candle blowing.

These girls know how to relax.
