Happy Birthday, Roo!! 🎉

This athletic girl has spent another year filling daycare with happy smiles, silly moments, and plenty of personality! Roo has grown so much this year, and one thing has stayed the same: that big, joyful smile she loves to send our way. Roo always seems ready for her next adventure and has a smile waiting for everyone!

One love that has definitely stood the test of time is her love for WATER! 💦 Give Roo a pool, splash pad, hose, sprinkler, or anything she can get wet in, and she is one happy pup. Her enthusiasm for splashing and swimming has remained just as strong as ever!

Roo also loves a good game of Tug o’ War! She’s always ready to grab a toy, dig in, and show off that athletic side. When she isn’t battling it out with a toy, she’s happy chasing after a ball and showing off her fetch skills. Roo brings her whole heart into every game she plays!

Of course, Roo is just as much a social butterfly as she is an athlete. She loves being around her furry friends and joining in on all the daycare action. And when Roo is feeling extra social, you may even hear her singing! Her little songs are just one of the many things that make her so wonderfully Roo.

Then there are her silly poses and sleeping positions! Somehow, Roo can turn even the simplest nap or sit into something completely hilarious, sometimes she’s twisted into a funny shapes, she always keeps us laughing.

But perhaps the sweetest thing about Roo this year has been watching her grow into such a happy, loving girl who loves sending those big smiles our way. Her joy is contagious, and one look at that smiling face is enough to brighten anyone’s day!

Roo, thank you for another year of splashes, fetch, silly poses, and the happiest smiles! We hope your birthday is filled with water, playtime, furry friends, cozy naps, and endless reasons to smile!

We Ruff You, Roo! 💕

Happy Birthday, Winnie & Lucy!! 🎉

These sweet sisters have truly grown so much this year! One of our favorite things has been watching Winnie and Lucy become even more social, confident, and comfortable with their daycare friends. They absolutely love coming to daycare and are always ready to sniff, sing, adventure, and help welcome their furry friends as part of our greeting committee! 💕

These girls have such a special bond and truly love being together. They enjoy exploring, keeping up with the action, and sharing their daycare adventures side by side. They each have their own unique personalities, and we love getting to see what makes each sister so special!

Winnie is our confident girl who would be more than happy to show you around daycare! She always seems to know where everything is happening and is ready to lead the way on an adventure. If you ever need a little tour of the important spots, Winnie has you covered!

Lucy is our absolute sweetheart who would happily sit down and hear all about your day. She has the gentlest personality and makes everyone feel loved and welcome. We can easily picture Lucy listening to your stories before heading into the kitchen to make you some homemade cookies! She is just that kind of girl.

These two appreciate a good snack and are always ready to see what delicious treats might be coming their way. They are also super smart girls who love puzzles and enjoy putting those clever minds to work during enrichment time! Winnie and Lucy also love to frequent the spa and stay squeaky clean. Fresh baths, beautifully trimmed and polished nails, and plenty of pampering are always appreciated by these two! They know how to enjoy a good spa day and are always looking their best afterward.

And of course, we cannot forget their singing! These girls have plenty to say and are always happy to join the daycare choir. Sometimes they are singing with their friends, sometimes they are sharing their thoughts, and sometimes they just want everyone to know that it is time for snacks!

Winnie and Lucy, thank you for being such sweet, smart, loving, and adventurous girls! We are so proud of how much you have grown this year and love seeing your personalities shine more and more each day.

We Ruff You, Winnie & Lucy!! 💖

Happy Belated Birthday, Spike!! 🎉

This handsome guy is truly one of the biggest cuddle bugs around! Spike loves all seasons, especially when they bring sunshine, adventures, and plenty of opportunities to sniff around and explore. No matter if he’s soaking up the warm sun, playing Tug o' War, following the pack, or keeping watch over all the fun happening around him, Spike is happiest when he can watch all the action.

Spike is always ready to welcome in staff, friends, grooming customers, and of course, his fellow pups with a kind bark! He has the sweetest way of letting everyone know he’s ready to say hello and make a new friend. And when he’s really hoping someone will join him for some playtime, he has his signature little jump bark that is just too cute! Spike loves being where the humans are and is always keeping up with his favorite people, making sure he never misses a moment of the action.

No matter the season, Spike knows how to look his best! During the colder months, he proudly sports the handsomest jackets, flannels, and coats, showing off his dapper side wherever he goes. Then when summer arrives, he’s ready to shine in his handsome bandanas after a fresh bath following a fun day of daycare play! This man is always ready to make an entrance.

When it comes to playtime, Spike has plenty of favorite activities. He loves chewing on his favorite toys, but there is one toy that stands above the rest: his Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich! Especially because it squeaks! But if there’s one game Spike could play all day long, it would have to be Tug o’ War. He loves a good tug battle when the time is right!

Spike also has his own special group of pups his age who he loves to spend time with. Whether they’re sunbathing together, sniffing around, or having a little puppy gossip session, Spike loves being surrounded by his furry friends.

And when Spike is feeling extra happy and pleased, he has the silliest way of celebrating. He’ll find the nearest cozy bed, roll around, dig into the blankets, and let out the happiest little grunts before suddenly taking off for a round of zoomies or barks! It’s one of our favorite reminders of just how much joy he carries with him.

Spike, thank you for being such a handsome, happy, and welcoming guy! We hope your birthday is filled with cozy blankets, squeaky chicken sandwiches, and all your favorite people!

We Ruff You, Spikey! 💙

Happy Birthday, Charlie!! 🎉

This sweet yellow lab is truly the social butterfly of her family! With two Lab sisters by her side and one Lab of each color in the family, Charlie proudly brings her own special sunshine wherever she goes. She absolutely adores her sisters and momma. This family loves making memories together, it is extra sweet when our team hears that each sister gets super excited together in the car on the route to daycare!

Charlie has the sweetest way of making friends: she simply gives out plenty of cuddles, kisses, and her signature Lab love! She loves greeting her favorite people and pups and is always ready to make a new friend. If there’s a fun plan happening, Charlie wants to be included! No matter if it’s playing with her friends, joining a game of chase, or getting in on the action, this girl is happiest when she’s part of the fun.

And when the playtime gets going, Charlie is always ready for some serious zoomies and pool swim circles! Always making a splash and then making a hot dash through the play yard. She’s not only a fun playmate, Charlie is also such a supportive sister and friend. She loves being there alongside the ones she cares about and is always ready to encourage a little more fun!

After all those adventures, Charlie is more than happy to trade her zoomies for some quality cuddle time. She has so much love to give and never misses a chance to shower her favorite people with kisses and snuggles.

One of our favorite things about Charlie is how much joy she brings simply by being herself. Charlie, thank you for being an oh-so-loving yellow girl. We hope your birthday is filled with your favorite people and your favorite pups!

Happy Birthday, Encore!! 🎉💗

This sweet girl has one of the most expressive personalities around! Encore will happily nudge you for some much-loved head scratches or let you know when she’s ready to play. Encore always makes sure her requests are heard! 💗

Encore is oftentimes found greeting her favorite people, playing chase with her daycare friends, or searching for something interesting to sniff. And when she sees one of her favorite staff members or friends, she has the happiest and most distinctive bark! When Encore gets excited to see you, you definitely know it!

When it comes to playing, Encore absolutely loves a good game of chase! She is always ready to get moving, and she especially loves when her friends join in on the fun. Once the local zoomies begin, you can bet Encore will be right there in the middle of everything! She doesn’t just love participating in the chaos, though she also loves encouraging her friends to join in. If someone needs a little extra motivation to run, Encore is happy to help!

Encore has a serious love for sniffing, and she is always ready to investigate every interesting scent she comes across. Give her a new area to explore and she’ll happily put that nose to work. Of course, she’s also a big fan of finding snacks along the way! If there’s a hidden treat waiting to be discovered, Encore is more than happy to take on the challenge.

Of course, sniffing out snacks isn’t the only thing Encore is a pro at. This girl is also a total puzzle and napping expert! She loves putting her clever brain to work solving puzzles, but when it’s time to recharge, Encore has a talent all her own... finding the funniest possible position to fall asleep in! It always entertains us to find her sprawled out, twisted into a silly pose, or somehow sleeping in a position that makes us wonder how she got there, Encore always keeps us smile even while she naps.

And while Encore certainly enjoys using her brain, she also has a deep love for tug and chewing games. 🐾 Give this girl something fun to grab onto and she is ready to show off her skills! Tug is one of her favorite ways to have fun, and chewing gives her the perfect opportunity to settle in and enjoy herself. Encore knows how to keep herself entertained!

One of our favorite things about Encore is just how much she loves her people. She absolutely adores her family and loves showing off her obedience skills whenever she gets the chance. Whether she’s proudly demonstrating something she knows or soaking up praise from the people she loves, Encore is always ready to show everyone just how smart she is!

Encore, thank you for filling our days with your happy barks, sniffy adventures, and wonderfully expressive personality. You make every day more fun just by being your silly and loving self!

We Ruff You, Encore! 💗🐾

Happy Birthday, Samone!! 🎉💗

This goofy girl Samone has one of the biggest personalities around, and she never misses an opportunity to make everyone smile! And she’s not just famous around daycare: Samone has officially made her way into the local art scene! 🎨 Her likeness was featured in the artwork “Bobb-Bull-heads” by Gupalo Designs, which was showcased at a local gallery show in Pulaski! How cool is that?!

(If you’re interested in seeing more of Gupalo Designs’ stunning artwork, be sure to check them out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gupalo.designs/)

Samone is oftentimes found greeting her favorite people, playing with her daycare friends, or simply getting excited about life, Samone always brings her own special kind of joy to the room.

When Samone gets excited, she jumps for joy! And when it comes to giving kisses, our girl doesn’t just lean in, she takes flight! ✈️ There’s nothing quite like being greeted by an airborne Samone who is ready to shower you with love.

Speaking of flight, we’re pretty convinced Samone may secretly be a mermaid! 🧜‍♀️ Water is absolutely one of her favorite things in the world. Sprinklers are especially exciting, and she’ll jump as high as she can to catch the water, unleashing what we like to call her powers of flight! If given the opportunity, Samone could spend hours chasing, splashing, digging in pools, and swimming in the water. Put her near a sprinkler or pool and she is one happy girl!

Of course, water isn’t her only great love. Samone has a serious soft spot for peanut butter, her mom, climbing, and pretty much every toy ever created. If there’s a toy nearby, you can bet Samone is ready to investigate it and turn it into her next adventure.

One of our favorite Samone quirks comes out when she’s getting ready for naptime. She has the cutest little routine of grumbling and rolling around before finally settling in. It’s almost as if she needs to make one last announcement to everyone before she decides it’s officially time to recharge. 😂

Samone has so much excitement for life, and that excitement extends to everyone she meets. She absolutely adores her staff members and gets just as excited to see all of her daycare pup friends. Samone brings an playful energy wherever she goes.

Samone, thank you for filling our days with your goofy personality, flying kisses, joyful jumps, and enthusiasm. You make every day more fun just by being you!

We Ruff You, Samone! 🥳💗

Whether he’s chasing his buddies around, wrestling with his crew, or getting into a little good-natured roughhousing, Ernie is always ready for his next adventure. His playful spirit and goofy personality bring so much fun and excitement to our days!

Ernie has some serious skills! He’s a master of trick shots and has an impressive talent for catching toys straight out of the air. Watching him spring into action is always a show, and he makes it look way too easy!

Happy Birthday, Sassy Girl!! 💕🐾

Our sweet girl Sassy may not be the loudest one in the bunch, but she has one of the BIGGEST hearts! This gentle little lovebug is the true sweetie pie of the group, and her favorite thing in the whole world is being close to the people and pups she loves most.

Sassy is a total cuddlebug who could happily spend her day soaking up the sunshine, getting cozy, and enjoying quality time with her friends. 🩷 But don’t let her quiet nature fool you: when it’s time to play, she is READY! One of her favorite games is getting chased (or doing the chasing herself!), especially when staff members are involved. Watching her happily trot after her favorite people is guaranteed to melt our hearts. 🥰

She loves her mom SO much, and that special bond is one of the sweetest things to watch. 💕 She also absolutely loves to wrestle with her daycare friends and will happily join in on a good play session before settling back down for some cuddles.

At the end of the day, though, Sassy is happiest when she can soak up all the love and adventure.

Sassy, thank you for being a gentle friend! We are so lucky to have you!

We Ruff You, Sassy! 💕
