Happy Birthday Wookie
Today (Jan 22nd) is Wookie's birthday. He is now 3 years old. We got him one year ago today from the Oakland SPCA. It has been an interesting year with him to say the least. I checked my entry from when we got him and I said something along the lines of he'll be a perfect dog in no time. It will take a little bit longer than that but we have certainly made progress. Over this past year I've learned that he is a heck of a guard dog, he is very fast and agile, he loves the snow, he loves to go walking, running, and hiking, he doesn't like strangers but he will start to like people if given enough time, and he is always happy to see Timber and I when we come home. He loves anything with lamb in it and could care less about anything else. And he loves his squirrel. For his birthday we are getting him a pfd for when we take him kayaking with us. It sure beats having Timber freak out when he jumps from the kayak into the middle of Loon Lake and it will save me having to jump in after him. Cheers Wookie, you're a great dog.
