Today is Huckleberry Finn's Second Adoption Birthday.  He's officially belonged to me for two years and a part of me can't believe it's been two years and a part of me can't imagine my life whout my little Huckle Hound.

Patrick and I wouldn't know what to do without him.  He's so incredibly special.  He's got his issues - being so nervous around strangers and so protective of the house, but he may be the absolute sweetest dog I have ever known.  If you worm your way into Huckleberry's heart, you're golden.  Because he'll never forget you and he'll always love you and he'll make sure you know it.  I love having a dog who loves to "give kisses" and who knows what that phrase means.  I love that if you make the smooching noise long enough he comes running to give you kisses because he just can't stand not to, even if he's playing with one of his toys.  I love how silly he is with Patrick, and how sometimes he sprawls out in front of Pat and kicks at Pat's chest to get him to play, and how he puts up with Patrick puling him around by his collar, and how he does his yoga pose when he's feeling particularly silly.  I love that his favorite time of day to cuddle is first thing in the morning and he snuggles right up against me.  I just...love that little dog.  And I seriously wouldn't know what to do without him.

And Patrick certainly wouldn't either.  I was so worried about Patrick not wanting to have to share everything with another dog, but he loves his little brother so incredibly much.  He doesn't even care much about playing with other dogs now because he can always play with his brother, which he does every day without fail.  It makes me feel like I did something good for Patrick too by getting Huckleberry.

Our lives are just so much fuller with Huckleberry around.

Those two dogs are everything to me.  ♥
