MerseyGrey Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Buddy has turned 10 today. He’s currently reclining at my feet after a busy morning of present opening and eating, although he’s ready to pounce in case the cake comes back out of the fridge. Thanks in advance for taking a look Buddy when we first adopted him, and one taken recently. A few people say that he has gotten greyer since we first had him (not surprising with me as his mum!) but I can’t really see it...maybe a bit more under the eyes New snood! Forage borl. He clearly didn’t fancy the kibble I put in there and spat it our in favour of a sweet potato and cranberry treat Birthday cake with doggy breath biscuit garnish. it’s human friendly food so we joined in with Buds when he had a slice. Happy to share the recipe if anyone wants it, it was the easiest cake I’ve ever made! He’s got a couple more gifts for him when his dad has a few minutes to join in with us but they are toys and clothes instead of food so I doubt they will get the same response as the cake. Unfortunately it’s Guy Fawkes’ Night tonight so there will be lots of fireworks going off, but he generally doesn’t respond to them, so we are very lucky in that respect. Our plans for the rest of the day are a nice walk and lots of cuddles Quote Buddy Molly 🌈 5/11/10-10/10/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next stop - Rocket’s Spoil Your Hound Day! just a couple more videos from his birthday as he loved his new toys - he even dropped the standard issue hedgehog for one of them which was most unexpected!

GreyPoopon Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Happy 10th Buddy! You sure got lots of presents and treats!

MerseyGrey Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Unfortunately we don’t have one but if you look for towelling jackets your hound can wear this and it can have water applied to cool him or her down. You might want to do a search or start your own thread as it might get lost in this one which is about a different subject Quote Buddy Molly 🌈 5/11/10-10/10/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monday is Cherry's first gotcha day and I'd like to have a celebration for her! Hello! Yes, it’s a very simple recipe Cake: 40ml / 2tbsp vegetable oil (plus extra for greasing the tin) 80g peanut butter 80g honey 1 large egg, lightly beaten 1 tsp vanilla extract 120g wholemeal flour 50g grated carrot, parsnip or combination of the two Frosting: 90g peanut butter 40g plain yogurt optional doggy biscuits to decorate. I also used carob paste mixed with Philadelphia to write his name, mostly because I really wanted to use the carob paste heat the oven to 180/160 C (fan), lightly grease a 6 inch sandwich tin and line the base with parchment mix: oil, peanut butter, honey, eggs and vanilla in one bowl mix flour and grated carrot in another. Fold the dry mixture into the wet until well combined. Spoon into the sandwich tin and bake for 30 minutes. Cool in the tin for 15 minutes before turning onto a rack mix the frosting ingredients and slather on when the cake is cool. Enjoy!
