Happy 6-Month Birthday, Lemon!!

Now that you’re six months old, it’s time you had a big girl bed.  So, for your birthday, we bought you a new house.

I know, I know, it doesn’t look like a house, it looks like a box, but you’re gonna love it!

Really, really, it’s awesome in here – it’s like a big playpen! 

See, it’s pretty cool – you have room for all of your toys, your bones, and your daddy! 

See, I told you you’d be really happy here!

First Poodle?  Portuguese waterdog, smudderdog, that’s a poodle.  No, no, no!

The only appropriate choice for First Dog, is of course, the Boston Terrier, because it truly is America’s first breed – a true American concoction, bred from a cross between an English Bulldog and a white English Terrier. This dog symbolizes the American immigrant experience. First a fighter, now the quintessential “American Gentleman,” the Boston Terrier is intelligent, self-sufficient, yet charming, affectionate, and of course, very talented.  Apple pie, pizza, french fries and chicken soup all rolled into one.  And that allergy Malia suffers from?  Nonsense.  Suck it for the right dog.

LEMON FOR FIRST DOG

(Well, a Boston Terrier like Lemon – Lemon doesn’t need the White House, she has us!)
