Happy B-day Frito

Stop the presses!

We interrupt this vacation photo series (and Frito's nap) to make this special announcement:

Frito is actually not a dog ... he is actually a pigmy deer fawn.

No, no, that's not it.  The announcement is ...

Frito's very tired and he's having a hard time standing up.

Oh, that's right ... that's because he's so OLD!

Yep, Frito turns 12 (or 84 in dog years) today.

Woo-hoo.  Happy Birthday Frito.

And don't listen to that announcer.  You're still a young pup to us.

Someone's a little tired

I'm not sure if you can tell in this photo, but my eyes are closed, and my head is slowly falling to Alpha's shoulder.

I am very tired by our hike up to Sanctuary.

Yo, Alpha.  

I am not an offering, so put me down.

That's not exactly what I had in mind.

Tired after the groomer

Alli, this is my birthday present to you.

I got groomed just so I would look so cute for your B-day post.

But I have to tell you, I'm not up for that much excitement in one day.

See how tired I am?


Actually, I'm really tired.

Alpha watched me as I slowly fell over on to the sofa.


Yep, really, really tired.

And really really cute!

A prefect present, I think, for my girl!

Happy Birthday Alli!

Shaggy goes for a walk

Yep, I'm looking a little shaggy these days.

But at least I'm running and smiling!


Well, perhaps I'm looking a bit bedraggled now.


That must be because it's getting rather hot out.

But I'm not gonna complain about the nice weather.

Hey Alpha -- how about some grooming soon, 'K?
