Annie is a lovable yellow lab who will be 13 years old on May 25th. She is getting older now and we feel so badly for her. She can't see or hear very well, but still loves to eat and is always happy when we're close by. Annie even likes it when our crazy cat Hallie comes to visit her.
Here she is the first month we had her in August 2000. We named her Annie, because we picked her up on or wedding "anni"versary on August 1st.
So cute. Don't you just want to squeeze her?
In honor of Annie's birthday on May 25th, we're having a Birthday Party for her...and you're ALL invited!!!
On Saturday, May 25th, you are invited to Annie's Pet Palooza Birthday Party. It will be a linky party, so I wanted to give you enough time to get your pictures ready.
Over the next 2 weeks, create a post about your pet on your blog and on May 25th I will open up the linky party so we can all share our pets with everyone!!
All pets are invited to the party too!!
Hope to see you there,
~Karen and Annie~
Doesn't Hallie look excited about the party? That's a cat for you!
Annie is beautiful! We also have a 13 year old Border Collie and a 9 year old Black Lab. It's so hard when they get up in years. I love my girls! Can't wait for her party!
ReplyDeleteawwwwwwwwwwwwww soooo cute
ReplyDeleteDefinitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people consider worries that they plainly dont know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

Pet Party is a great linky idea!! Don't we all love to talk about and show off our friends. I'll be joining this one for sure!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Annie is adorable!I have a 3yr Bichon, Miss Daisy Marie. Dogs are one of the best part of familes <3
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea, of course any idea that lets me show off my babies is a good idea :). Pets on Quilts is coming in August and we're already sneaking up on the dogs for that one.
ReplyDeleteI showed my husband Annie's baby pictures and he said "Aw, it's Tobester (Toby)"! We definitely will come to your party Annie and we think it's wonderful that you will be thirteen!
ReplyDeleteAnnie looks so sweet no matter what her age! The fact that she is happy with a tortie kitty tells me she is very nice!I seem to be "specializing" in elderly animals as my non-sibling pups are getting rather ancient, 16, and still bounce around the yard and protect us from squirrels. I used to work at a holistic vet who taught me that it is never too late to give our dogs supplements. I give them fish oil right into the their food every meal and I also give them condroitin/glucosamin (sp?)every day. It all seems to help the joints, their hearts, and their brains! Finally, I feed them the best possible food I can afford - (nothing from a big box store). The vets are amazed at how active and how old my guys are! Supplements won't help Annie's eyes or ears, but they may make her feel 5 again!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweetie. I miss my Lab. Her hind quarters were very weak after 13 so I made a flannel double layer sling to support her when we went outside and for walks. The drug that helped her pain was Tramadol. Cheaper at Walmart and much safer than the canine joint meds. Have a happy birthday Miss Annie.
ReplyDeleteOur thirteen year old yellow lab, Stella, has a new friend, year old yellow lab, Luna. They are good friends and Stella has perked up. Love them both.
ReplyDeleteEs un perito precioso, adoro a los animales.
ReplyDeleteGuau,guau, guau, para Annie y un beso para ti
ana-ane
Annie looks like a sweetie! I love posting pics of our pups!
ReplyDeleteIt is my birthday too, I will be traveling to Wales for a weeks hoilday. If I can work out how to link I will.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Annie! Can't wait for your party!
ReplyDeleteAh man, they should stay puppies forever. Sooooo cute.
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Poochie will be partying with her -- she turns 12 in May - she was free puppy and no one knew her birthday -- so we celebrate the entire month -- Life is pretty good as a dog!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Annie!
Happy Birthday Annie. Love your girls, they look so happy. I have a 9 year old boxer and 10 year old blue healer/aussie mix. I love them so much. They are part of the family. I wish I had a blog to link up to you guys.
ReplyDeleteIt's on my calendar. Great idea. I have a Chow Shepard mix named Dutch. Dutch is 17 years old. I 'll round up a few photos of my crazy pack of dogs and join in.
ReplyDeleteI can talk about my 'babies' all day long as long as someone listens.
Put it on my calander too.
ReplyDeleteI find it very difficult to see my four cats getting older. The oldest two will become 11 in july, so for a cat not really thát old yet, but I already dred the day I will have to say goodbey. That's really the only big flaw of pets; they never get old enough, do they.....
But, celibrating them, giving attention to our sweeties is a great idea and I will certainly join in!!!
Dang I am going to have to start a blog so I can post my fur kids. My Bamm Bamm loves to party!! I loves to swim and eat
ReplyDeleteMy Yorkie Lacey is 2 and she has stolen my heart!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetheart!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Annie!
one of our cats is getting older and can't hear so we have to keep a special eye on her- but she seems very happy and doesn't mind at all if we vacuum near her! :)
This is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteIs there a Pet Palooza Party button we can link on our posts?
Awh! Annie is so cute! I love dogs, but I don't have one yet! I am still in college and the dog wouldn't get their well deserved attention and care at this point in my life. Someday though! I currently do have a pet fish if Annie would enjoy having him at her party! I do however have a kitten I am very attached to that is my friends' kitten. I shall see if they would like her to join the party as well! Happy Almost Birthday Annie!!!
ReplyDeleteDarnit .. I cannot get my picture to upload .. Grr.. Well maybe the cat next door can help me out. Fur parent Mom has no idea I am typing to you wish you a Happy Birthday (she is crocheting or in her sewing room making a quilt). Maybe the cat next door can help me out after Mom goes to bed tonight.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Annie XOXOXO ... Brie
PS My MOM loves your YOUR mom's blog very much !
Happy Birthday to Annie. Today is my dogs birthday also. Tahoe is a very sweet white Standard Poodle and she is 10 years old.
