It is Miggs Birthday today and she is 9 years old .
We saw an add in Kijiji puppies for sale just a hour away from us and loved the photos we saw with the add . There were 9 pups all together and all were soo cute , So on the first weekend of October we went to see them . They were born on a dairy farm and they were just 6 weeks old , now your not supposed to take pups away from the Mama till 8 weeks or more but this was a desperate owner as the Mama pushed the entire litter away and didn't want anything to do with them and the owner could not handle them all as they had a lot on their plate already with the dairy farm also this was their dogs first litter an oops from a male farm dog up the road apparently . Any who , we get there and they had the pups in the farm house kitchen all running about and oh my what cuties they all were , I wanted all of them . I sat down in the kitchen just loving all these pups and Papa was playing with one of them , then this little one comes up to me and sits right on my foot and looks up at me with these big brown teddy bear doe eyes with a misty blue huge in them and that was that she was up in my arms in no time and she snuggled her face under my hair on my shoulder and fell asleep ,well that was the one , the little puppy that we both fell in love with and we brought her home to be part of our family and she has been our fur baby ever since .
The tongue to this day she still sleeps with her tongue out and will just sit there with it out to lol !
Misty AKA Miggs has been such a fun loving friendly girl from the start and has kept me company for many years whilst Papa is at work and we both love our walks we have been taking for many years each day weather permitting of course lol ! Misty has been through a lot physically with her back legs but she has been and always is a trouper and a happy go lucky girl , all the neighbors just love her and when it is time for school Miggs has to be there to see the kids get her cuddles and watch them get on the bus then she is happy , a few times she wanted to get on the bus with them silly girl . I bet she would make a wonderful class mate all though she can get a little nosey at what one is doing lol ! Miggs is a excellent supervisor to as she has done this many times for Papa and I .
Miggs from six weeks old to now , I have never had a dog that looks change soo much over the years but she has always had the same character , loving , fun , happy and loves to play go for walks go to the dog beach do her tricks for treats and cuddle . Always the cuddle puppy even now .
Miggs loves to play all though she gets tired faster now she still is a trouper and has a few fetches every day !
Yes a year later after the little puppy stage , see what I mean about the changes in her looks WOW !
It seemed as each year she got older the more prominent her mixed breeds showed . She is mixed with Bearded Collie , Wheaten Terrier , Golden Retriever and Larger hound and maybe more but these are the characters and looks of these breeds that show in her .
Always such a fun happy girl and my buddy and from day one she has loved posing or showing off for the camera .
And her dignity has always been well non existent lol !
Above photo is before we started getting her shaved down a bit she was 2 years old .
She loves to play in the snow .
And in the leaves every fall !
Misty has been such a wonderful dog and she loves everyone she meats and always has a tail wag for them . She is the star of this blog for sure and the star in our hearts .
We you Misty AKA Miggs and all want to wish you a
Happy Birthday Misty .
Luv from Country Gal/ Mama , Papa and Harley

Happy birthday! They sure know how to wrap themselves around our little fingers...and our heart strings, don't they?!
Happy Birthday Miggs!! I know for sure that you picked out the perfect puppy. I have loved Miggs since the first day I saw her on your blog. She has the most unusual face and hair. She's perfect, that's what she is. She is lucky too that the best family picked her. She really has changed over the years. Your pictures are always beautiful.
Happy Birthday to Miggs!
What a great look back at her history with you.
