I hate to say it, I've become one of "those" dog people. You know the types, people who spend way to much money on their canine companions because they've humanized the dog. We take our dog to "Doggie Day Care" when we are going for more than 4 hours, we watch him play with his friends on the day care webcam, and we provide the dog with his own Christmas stocking. Today Soma, our Lab/Bloodhound/Shepherd mix, turned 2 years old. For many dogs, turning two is the equivalent of entering adulthood -- much like turning 18 for humans. To make the moment more significant, Soma turned 2 on June 2, which my childhood called a "Golden Birthday". To celebrate, we simply HAD to buy Soma his own cupcake made with doggie friendly ingredients from a specialized doggie bakery in downtown Seattle. Here are the pictures of his special moment:
The Cupcake (made mostly of peanut butter and other dog-friendly ingredients)

Nice cupcake! Give the ring bearer my best on his entrance into manhood. Just as long as we don't see a pink sweater on Soma everyone will be cool with you guys being "Dog People". Pink is not his color. Maybe purple....maybe
Wouldn't a better present have been if you just turned a blind eye to him rooting through the garbage for 5 minutes?
