Bodhi with special friend Sabrina Renee

It’s hard to believe that my Puff Doggy, Bodhi Bear is 4 years old already. Boy time seems to fly by way too fast. 

To celebrate Bodhi’s birthday this year, I thought it would be fun for him to spend time with some of his close friends. 

So Bodhi’s week long Birthday Extravaganza was hatched. His week started off with good friend MacGuvyer the Puggle. Together, they ate Burger Bites. 

The Burger paw-ty was followed by Bodhi’s Fuzzy Birthday Party with the Keesateers, Harvey, and Eli. 

Bodhi’s 3rd and final paw-ty is with his girlfriends: Sabrina Renee the Golden Retriever along with Greta and Tonks, who are German Shepherds.

Bodhi shares his excitement as I tell him that his girlfriends are arriving shortly to celebrate his special day with him:

Here are Bodhi’s paw-ty guests:

Sabrina’s Mom Sharon made Bodhi a special dog birthday cake:

Greta and Tonk’s Mom, Karen found an edgy way to display the party favors:

Finally, birthday cake for the birthday boy and his guests! 

The dogs patiently waited to eat BIRTHDAY CAKE!!!!!!

Once the cake was eaten, Bodhi opened the wonderful gifts he received from his girlfriends and their Moms.

All in all, Bodhi’s 4th Birthday Celebration was a lot of fun for  everyone. 

Bodhi wrote on his Facebook page, Puff Doggy, 

My mom is so silly but the best because she gives me so many paw-ties to celebrate my birthday.

I’m glad my fuzzy boy enjoyed his weeklong celebration. It makes me happy to make Bodhi happy. 

Thank you for joining in on Bodhi’s Birthday Extravaganza as you helped make Bodhi’s special day (or in his case, week) that much sweeter. 

See you next year for another Fuzzy Birthday . . .

Every year, I let my animal family know how much I love them by celebrating these important milestones with them. Bodhi likes to celebrate with his friends. Mona and Elvis prefer low-key affairs with cat nip, special treats and ear scratches.

This year, I threw Bodhi Bear two parties to celebrate his 3rd Birthday because he has a lot friends. Bodhi invited some of his girlfriends to the first of two Birthday Parties: Sabrina Renee the Golden Retriever; Gigi and Ruby, the King Charles Cavaliers; and Greta and Tonksky, the German Shepherds. Bodhi is quite a popular pup with the ladies.

Pupcakes for Bodhi Bear and his Girlfriends

Sabrina Renee’s mom baked these Pupcakes especially for Bodhi’s 3rd Birthday party. As you can imagine, the pupcakes disappeared quickly. Now that I think about it, so did the cupcakes!

Bodhi’s birthday party, part duex, happened the weekend after his actually birthday. He wanted to celebrate with his dear friends, Eli and Harvey. The 3 dogs together are affectionately known as “The Keesateers.”

My friend, Sharon Hill, is an event planner (www.sharonhillevents.com) who loves to throw birthday parties for her Golden Retrievers. First she threw parties for Abby, who is now In Spirit. Her current Golden, Sabrina Renee, recently celebrated her 10th Birthday in my backyard with a few close friends. Bodhi enjoyed having his friends around and eating cake. He especially enjoyed the “Hot Dog Drop!”

In this video, Sabrina Renee enjoys unwrapping her many gifts with a little help from her friends. Keep watching to see Sabrina’s gifts. 

Sabrina shows off her gifts while Greta the Shepard eats a bone.

Do you celebrate your pet’s birthdays or Gotcha days? If so, I’d love to hear what you like to do for your family.
