In case you weren’t aware, dear readers, today (August 26) is National Dog Day.  This day was established to encourage dog adoption and rescuing of all breeds – from mutts to mixes to purebreds.  Now this is a holiday I can get behind.  Honoring dogs and celebrating dogversity!

On another front, I am turning five years old tomorrow!  I know I shouldn’t woof this, but it does seem like I’ve been in Momma’s clutches, er, care for a lot longer.

Even though Momma wasn’t around for my birthday weekend (“I couldn’t help that it was the same weekend as the House Republican golf outing, Lina”), I got to spend quality time with Dr. Becca and Winnie!  We relaxed, played, kayaked and helped out at Dr. Becca’s office again.  It was so enjoyable, I almost didn’t mind wearing the dreaded Doggles for a little photo op.  Here we are enjoying our time together.  (Winnie does look a little Hells Angels, doesn’t she?)

I also want to share a video of me enjoying an e-birthday card from Nanny Becky on my second birthday!  This is a must see – DO NOT skip it!  I really think it’s going to go viral.  If only Momma could think of how to make that happen.

Lina, Celebrating!

WOOFDA!
