Happy 6th Birthday, Freedom!
.
I’m in the dog house because I missed Freedom’s birthday. Freedom turned 6 years old on May 14! Here’s a little tribute to Freedom:
F – Feisty
On a visit to Wolf Park, the guide explained to us that in a wolf pack, dominance doesn’t always relate to size and strength. Often it has more to do with attitude. I had to chuckle because Freedom has attitude+.
R – Rebellious
There is a little rebellious streak in Freedom. I’m confident that she’s not convinced that the humans should be running the household. When my husband tells the pups to go lay down, Casper and Nikki go nicely to their beds. Freedom, on the other hand, will go over to her bed, circle around it but stay standing. If it’s important and my husband insists, he has to go over to her and repeat the command. Then, slowly, reluctantly, she’ll lay down. I probably shouldn’t, but I kind of get a kick out of her sweet stubbornness.
E – Eldest
Freedom is our oldest.
E – Enthusiastic
Freedom is always ready and enthusiastic…for anything. When I come home, she does the cutest little hopping up and down on her front legs. She’s even taught this move to Casper. I ignore it because I like to keep homecomings as calm as possible, but it always makes me smile.
D – Dominant
Freedom’s the boss and she runs a tight ship.
O – Odd
Freedom has the cutest crooked ear and a bald neck, chest, tummy and butt. One of the greatest lessons the pups have taught me is to be comfortable in my own skin. Humans spend so much time wishing and trying to be “something else.” Not so with our pets. Makes us seem silly.
M – Marble Eyes
When she turns these eyes on me, I melt.
Happy Birthday, Freedom! I love you.
Uh oh! Hope you are getting extra treats Freedom 😉 I’m fairly certain I missed Shiner’s birthday too. At least blog post wise.
Happy belated birthday Freedom.
I love that ear:)
Great description of Freedom. Remember if there’s treats, we forgive anything.

Sweet Freedom! 😀 She reminds me of our late Phil. I’m sure she forgives you not publicly acknowledging her birthday until today. After all, *every* day is all about her!
Happy Birthday!!! Every greyhound gang needs a leader. Our Jaime does the hoopty thing too. Even as a Tripaw. So cute.

Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning

Awesome!! And happy late birthday to Freedom.
I really enjoyed the life lessons mixed with the letters of her name!
Freedom, we wish you the very happiest of birthdays! May there be many more for you!
I’m even later than you in wishing Freedom a happy birthday 🙁 Hope she had a lovely belated birthday? Beryl has the same baldy bits as Freedom, funny thing is she only went bald after I adopted her … should I send her back, lol.
Hey we’re are only a couple of weeks apart in age! Belated Happy Birthday Freedom mate! Deccy x
