My Baby is now 3 years old!

Feb. 18, 2006 - since the day my husband brought him home from a dog show at Stafford Center, our life has never been the same. My husband has always said that Pogi had him at "Hello" with his heart-melting brown eyes and waggling short tail. After his first visit to Petsmart for grooming he just look so cute and we both said at the same time "ang pogi mo naman" and that is how he got his name. He could have been T-Rex (for tiny Rex-the opposite of the dinosaur name that I can't even spell) but our friend's dog has already put his paw stamp on it. Pogi is officially registered as a Yorkshire Terrier born on Nov. 16, 2005 and his parents are "Little Bitty Man" and "Angel Marie." Well, his Mom would be so proud of him because he has remained an "angel" to us. I'm making a scrapbook and found this picture taken 2 days after he came to our home. He was only 3 months old then and weighed only 3.5 lbs - my husband was holding him up with one hand and now I need both arms to pick him up (he's 16 lbs now). This has brought a lot of memories and we actually had a good laugh reminiscing the "craziness" we went through from potty training to getting him neutered, his escapades and misadventures. Despite our flaws, Pogi has brought us affection, comfort, security and unrivaled devotion when we needed it most. I saw the trailer of this movie coming out on Christmas day ... Marley and Me and I bet all the dog lovers out there will love this one. Well for his 3rd b-day.... since he knows now how to "give Mama a hug" this was his treat ...........
