Happy Barkday Wally Tamale!

This is my friend and mentor Wally
Tomorrow is his Barkday
He is around 5 years old.
Like me, Wally is a rescue dog.
So there are things that shall forever remain a mystery about both of us.
Like when is Wally's real Barkday?
And why does Gussie not chase balls?

In honor of your Barkday we have done as you directed.

We made a contributon to a rescue organization near and dear to us,

Instead of sending you Eatables and Wearables.

Please don't look so sad...it was your idea!

Gussie!

You guys have done one very fine tribute here. I too sit at the paws of this great dog, under his tutelage and discipleship. Some day I may be half the dog he is.

You have great taste in mentors and are a great friend and dog yourself, GusMan! Thanks for reminding us about the donatables.

Goober love & burpday smooches in honor of Wally,
Stanley

I'll have to get back to you about a fee schedule for my services. I won't be available until May or June. Would that be okay?

Us rescue dogs are a mystery sometimes aren't we. I like to think it gives us a cerain mystique and je ne sais quoi don't you!

Off to say happy burpday to Wally!

Aw Gus--I'm touched! (My ma ape tells me that sometimes--that I'm touched--and then she laughs. I don't get it). Since our "real" birthdays are unknown I think we should celebrate EVERY day--just in case.

wally.

ps. My ma ape says I shouldn't pout because I get enough toys and snacks for a hundred dogs anyway!

P.S. Buster has already busted me about lying about my age so I should come clean. While my botox lets me pass for 5, I was adopted 5 years ago but I'm probably 12 years old or so! I have a lot of lost birthdays to make up for...
