Ha roo, everypup! It's me - Stormy! We're back from Leave and just in time to celebrate a VERY important day around here. The day we adopted Amber! That's right - it's our Amaversary!!! Here we are - I know you've seen this picture before, but it's one of my favs, so bear with me.
I just couldn't believe it when Mom and Dad brought her home to me back in '99 and let me know I'd just had a puppy! I was ecstatic! She was already 4 months old and we took to each other right away! I'd always wanted a puppy of my own! She was and is perfect in every way!I helped train her, of course. I even house-broke her! That was easy - she wanted to be just like me and our great brother Booter. Here I am, tiring her out - you know that old adage is true: A tired Siberian is a good Siberian. Of course, I think ALL pups are good .... but that's another story.
Come on, Ammy! Catch me if you can!
Since Booter was half Lab and half Australian Shepherd, he could herd us up for Mom, which was very cool! In that picture above, he was waiting for the "Round 'em up, Boots!" request. I mean "command". Whatever. He usually got her corralled first.
Here's the little one!
We're all so very happy to have Ammy in our lives. She is the best girl puppy I've ever had - kind, playful, strong, loyal, brave, a little silly, and ever-so-sweet. Celebrate the day with us, friends! Happy Ammyversary!!!
Tail wags,
Storm
Happy Amaversary! I envy you all having each other to play with.

Happy Amaversary to all of you! What a happy day. You did good Storm.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Mom LOVES the picture of you and Amber!
Congratulations on your Ammyversary, Amber!! Does it seem like its been 7 years since you found your furever home? We think probably not! Stormy, you look like a very proud momma in that first picture! You have done an excellent job of training Ammy. We also think that Booter was a very handsome boy. Again Happy Ammyversary Amber!!

Maggie: Thank roo, and good luck with Mitch. Be positive and supportive, but if he REALLY needs it, grab him by the neck and throw him down. Remind him that YOU rule. (And the bipeds, too, I guess. Though I do NOT recommend them doing the throw down.)

Happy Amaversary! What a lovely post! Sorry we are a bit behind with catching up with all the news on the Dog Blogs.
ReplyDeleteooooh Stormy, but being Marvin, as you know, I always mis understand stuff I read.......but try as I might I cannot see the "bear with me"?????
Is the bear hiding?
Why is there an invisible bear at Ammis's anniversary.....
so many questions, so little answers, the world is a puzzling place for Me Marvin you know!
Love and puzzled licks, from Marvin xxxxxx
