Chris was off work today, so I took him to my gym this morning since his is closer to his office than our apartment. He has recently taken up boxing (not with other people, just a bag…I enjoy teeth on my men) so I put on some gloves and hit the gym’s bag with him. It was awesome and a crazy good workout. I might have to do it more often. The gym has these little pink gloves that are really cute as long as you don’t think about all the sweaty hands that have been in them before yours.
Anyway, after I finished up work this afternoon, we took the pup to Prospect Park’s dog beach for a birthday swim. He had a lot of fun splashing around and stealing another dog’s tennis ball and terrorizing children. On the way home, we stopped to get the best ice cream ever:
You have to share this ice cream. It is physically impossible to eat an entire cone on your own. I learned this the hard way a few months ago.
We also picked up a special treat for Jack:
Isn’t that cute? Apparently dogs can eat carob and whatever else this thing is made out of. They had donuts and cannoli too, but he wanted what we were having.
He enjoyed his birthday splurge while wearing his birthday hat:
Sorry. I had to.




“I enjoy teeth on my men” HAHA!!!! Too freaking funny
Aww, happy birthday, Jack!!! What a cutie
Happy Birthday Jack!!! He’s too cute with his hat.
I. Could. Die.

I bought my pup some Frosty Paws on her birthday. Have you had those? It’s doggie ice cream cups - you can buy them at grocery stores in the human frozen section! yumo

That’s so sweet! I love the little ice-cream shaped treat too. Jack has the same birthday as me, lol. He’s adorable.
Happy (belated) Birthday to Jack!! I love that you put a b-day hat on him… I did the same to my dog when I had one! LOL
Aww Jack looks so cute in his b-day hat. I am glad he was able to splurge and have ice cream for his birthday celebration.
That’s so cute!!! Dogs love hats and clothes. I often times daydream of getting my dog fitted for a tux.
That ice cream looks delicious!!!

Yes, that’s adorable! Happy birthday Jake!
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, you smell like a doggie and you look like one too!
Happy birthday Jack!

You won’t be a bastard forever!
Thanks for all the happy birthday wishes for Jack! He appreciates it.
Which ice cream place is it? I live in Brooklyn and always love to hear about new places I need to try!
