Duffy's 6th Birthday

I can't believe we are at Duffy's 6th birthday already!!  I don't want him to age any more than this--or at least not for a long time. It was a rainy, snowy day all day and not a fitting day for going out and taking birthday pictures.  So I contented myself with grooming Lanny and Duffy, and taking a few shots here and there in the house.

Lanny on the grooming table--I think we are going to tape/glue his ears down again.  You can see a tip, but we should see if we can get a better fold.   It's a 2 person job though--Lanny is very bendy and twisty!!

The boys enthusiastically (as per usual!!) greeted Dave when he arrived from the farm!!

Mister Lanny!!

A little over to the left please!!! 

Happy Birthday my Duffy!!! Dave and I hope you know just how much we love you!! XOXOXOXO

Happy Birthday Duffy!! I never did get around to blogging about Kort's Birthday! Perhaps today I will :)
I got a good look at Lanny's ears here, you may be fighting a loosing battle, in my experience the smaller ears that are narrower near the top almost always stay prick, that's why I like the bigger ears that have the same width at the top as at the bottom when they are puppies, I hope I'm wrong :(

Yeah, Lanny does have small ears--even smaller than Duffy's. I kept them braced until almost 5 months, then glued beyond his 1st birthday. But maybe not over enough--I have a picture where he's almost 6 months and they are glued right over at that point. I think we tried hard to get it right and do it right, even beyond when most sources say to keep them glued. Anyway, thus the questions about loading!
