Bella at the birthday party...

Having a grand time is Margo, whose family tells us she loves to swim every chance she gets.

Chase had fun, as did all the other pups.

Herbie lives with two active boys and gets LOTS of attention and exercise!

It’s not just the pups who have grown a year older! Here is Sampson, as a pup...

and as she looked at her adoption day, one year earlier.

...and at the party, along with his human sister Carolyn.

We always LOVED this puppy photo of Youkilis.

Here is Youkilis at the party…a thoughtful young man with the same inquisitive look on his face.

Lily (formerly Pearl) was originally the biggest and feistiest pup in the litter. Surprisingly, she’s turned into a petite little girl, now the smallest of the group.

“Mom, I thought I was done with all these kids!”

Frodo’s family was on vacation the day of the party but Frodo himself got to attend since he was boarding with us at Gateway.
