Hoppy 5th birthday Cooper and Charlie

On Veterans Day, Cooper and Charlie, and their siblings turned 5 years old.

I somehow managed to invite the whole crew to my house this year, instead of the beach.  It saved me a drive with both dogs, and I was ever so grateful to have everybody else drive to me.  I live in “nowhereville” (you can’t get there from here type of thing).  So, I appreciate how far the other pet parents had to come.

Anyway, the dogs had a great time in our fully fenced-in yard.

Even though Cooper is my comfort dog, he can get a little territorial and rambunctious.  He got into a tussle with his sister, and with his brother!  I had to put him in time-out in the basement for a few minutes each time.  Nobody got hurt, it was just loud and looked bad.  Ugh.

Here are some pictures of the gang!
