It's my birthday

Tevya is two years old.   Actually he's more than that, but he just had his second rescue birthday.  Being a rescue dog is apparently the only way that one can be "born again" without turning into right-wing religious nut. 

Tevya's folks describe him as "equal parts couch potato and energizer bunny. (i.e., his is either sleeping or sprinting, you will rarely finding him just sitting around.)"  That sounds very much like our Molly, who has only two settings:  off, or full speed ahead.

Tevya is smart. He can work the electric car windows and has a wide vocabulary.  He knows the names of individual toys and he has particular places he likes each of them to be. 

He spent his birthday at his grandparents' place, running in the woods, eating steak, and collecting a batch of new toys as well as this monster rawhide bone.
