Today is Milo’s 9-month birthday. He was born September 6, 2011. You can see earlier photos of him here and here.

My friend Tom dropped by yesterday, so I asked him to take a video of Milo doing his tricks. With both adults sitting on the floor with him, Milo was super excited.

If you follow me on Facebook, you may have seen some of these photos before. No order to the photos, just daily life with a puppy.

After bath – "Mom, you better be prepared to sleep with one eye open tonight!"
"Help, she's working me too hard!"
"Wanna go outside?"
"Wanna play Tug of War?"
Playing at the dog park.
Naughty puppy in time-out.
"Why did you wake me up?"
"See my mom's pretty toes?"
"Who needs toys, when I just help myself to the goodies in the recycling bin."
King of the castle of quilts – best spot in the house.
Milo's first girlfriend, his form needs a little bit of work.
Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle.
Sleeping comfortably.
"But MOM, I don't want to leave the dog park. Can't we stay a little longer?"
"Chomp, chomp, chomp!"
Riding first class to Nana and Grandpa's house.
"Now I can see out the window!"
Yummy bone.
Crying puppy, after returning home from being neutered and micro-chipped.
Depressed having to wear the cone of shame again after a boo boo needed to be fixed in his privates.
"Bend down, so I can bite your nose!"
Bad hair day!
Exhausted after the dog park.

    Happy 9 months old to Milo!! The bad hair day photo reminds me of a dog we had when I was growing up. She was a doxie Schnauser mix and her hair would get unruly and we would tell her to comb her face all the time. Then she would sit still and let us finger comb her hair back into place and then go and roll on the floor to mess it up again. 🙂

    Milo’s first girlfriend didn’t look very impressed. If she was a Bassett, she probably liked the attention.

    Thanks for sharing the puppy fun.

    In New Zealand we have series of childrens books about a dog called Hairy McCleary from Donaldson’s Dairy, and Milo reminds me of him. The author is Lynley Dodd.
