Happy 7th Birthday Otis!

On this day, seven years ago, an Otis Van Nostrand, Truman Capote-Claus was born. Here he is as a young, naughty pup. And here he is as an old, naughty pup. Otis continues to be a challenging dog. He has many fears and his latest is the sound of the wind from inside the house. He gets shaky and tries to sit on your lap. He is such a nervous Nelly. He also continues to be a food thief and has found someone who will actually hand food over to him. He's getting lumpy and bumpy but we couldn't love him more. I hope he's around for at least seven more years! Happy Birthday Gluemanium.

Otis enjoyed his birthday. He visited the neighbors. He went to the dog park. He went for a long walk in the woods and capped off the evening with a quarter pounder (with cheese!) and some chicken nuggets. He didn't even mind sharing with his little sister.
