PJ Harvey Turns 4 years old

My PJ Harvey turned four today. He's getting so big! So I decided to reminisce a little. Below is a little storyline of PJ Harvey's life so far. Enjoy!

PJ Harvey was adopted at 3 months old. He was a smiley little guy and looked so small in the front seat.

I remember him being so clumsy that first day. He even fell in a mud puddle, which sadly enough I did not get a picture of.:(
He grew fast, which of course you don't notice until four years have flown by. He grew into a charming little pup.
 

He learned how to claim certain areas as his own - no matter how much room he might take up...
...or who he might kick you out of the front seat (which he still stubbornly refused to give up)...

Between the second and third year, his boyish charm slowly changed to more of a roguishly handsome charm. He now gives a very serious look, which you will probably see from this point on in the timeline.

 One of our first Christmas cards he decided to show off for the camera as he howled while the picture was being taken.
He thinks he is a stud.

 Speaking of stud, over time he found himself to be quite the sportsdog. His first catches were ground squirrels at Duncan Park.
From then on he was addicted...making sure to check for ground squirrels every chance he got.
Silly dog. He loves the snow so much. I wish I could share a picture of him holding his tennis ball (which was covered in snow, making it look like a snowball in his mouth). That picture was too small to share, though. However, here are a couple of other ones.:)


He enjoys laying by the fire, so I chose that as another spot for a Christmas card photo...
As many know, PJ Harvey has never been too good at meeting new people. He is a little protective or what others might call "vicious". Whatever...I don't know how you can call this precious guy vicious.

Matty!
Anyway, PJ Harvey met someone he has grown to like. Meaning someone he doesn't plan to viciously attack anytime soon...

PJ has found that laying on Matty was very comfortable...
 

...and he puts up with him, even when he makes him put on silly hats and clothes.
 
Poor PJ...

I'm glad that I've had my PJ Harvey over the past four years. He brings so many smiles to my face.
 

Him trying to fit into the front seat NOW makes me laugh. It's crazy how big he's grown...

 


Happy Birthday to my PJ Harvey! 4 human years and 28 doggy years...and still SO handsome.
