 | The 12 Years Of Lily - 12 Day Photo/Video Countdown! Happy 12th Birthday Lily!
Hello DT. It's 12 days to Lily's 12th birthday! I figured it was time to celebrate! Lily was born on November 11th, 2000!
Here are a few pics when she was in her first year. I'll post new pics/videos every day for every year I've had her!
Everyone who meets her would describe her as, sweet, shy, sensitive, cuddle bug, food drooler, squirrel barker, couch queen.
Some of you may have seen her at the Dobe Nationals. She came along, as she just didn't want to be left home..... She was a big hit.....and loved the many pieces of chicken, wieners and liver that magically came out of people's pockets when they saw the sweet senior girl!
She participated in the full heart work up that was being provided.....and I'm happy to report.....her heart is 100% healthy!!! She's slowing down these days, but still plugging along. She perks right up in the backyard, or when cookies are around!
So without further ado. Here is baby Lily - Year #1.
8 weeks old! 
Comfy Chair 
Loving The Sun 
It's a tough life being cute.

Well....looking for pics shows me...that way back then....I didn't carry a 'real' camera around like I have with my iphone! So it was scanning time for the last few hours!!! And pics that are 10 to 12 years old.....MAN I was young!!!
Here is Lily in year 1 to 2.
Lily has worn this forlorn expression from the day I got her....to this very day. 
Skinny 1 year old!

| Day 4!!! Here's Lily in Year 3-4. She's staring to grow up. She spent her days with her nails painted pink, swimming....She was a HUGE swimmer....out in the middle of the lake like a lab! These days, she goes in....but can't swim anymore. She tries but just bobs like a cork. Poor girl. Anyhow....here's Lily in her prime!
Pretty Girl 
Happy Girl 
Cottage 
Us.... 
Poor Lily. So mistreated.
