Happy Birthday, Sherman!

Well, another day, another destroyed duck. Actually two ducks this morning, but I couldn't bring myself to scold Sherman because — wait for it — today is his birthday!

Yes, the Shermanator, the Sherman Tank, Sir Sherman McShreds-a-lot has reached the ripe old age of one. I don't know what odds Vegas would have put on such an unlikely event, but I can tell you there were days when they would have been looooong.

Our friends Lee and Sue took this photo of Sherm and me not long after we adopted him at two months old:

I doubt I'll be able to hold him up in the same pose, but I'll try to get a similar photo today after work to show how much he's grown in the past 10 months. Which is not to say he's done growing; the way he's been power-napping, I think another growth spurt is just around the corner...

  1. Happy Birthday Sherman. You are one lucky dog!
    Darcy, if you keep jogging and exercising you will be able to "heft and lug" with no problems.
    If he has another growing spurt, a saddle is what he needs.
    Miss Darcy, you do not look a year older! What is your secret -- dogs and the great love?
