“That is the happiest dog I have ever seen!”

October 17th, 2010 - 12:12 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and “That is the happiest dog I have ever seen” lovers….

A gentleman walking past Chaps and I today told me that.

Can you imagine howl I smiled? Chaps was prancing like a dandy down the VMI parade ground as we headed towards Washington and Lee University which is in prancing distance.

Yesterday we saw this!

Not bad for a 10 year old! Kicking both back feet like a 10 month old! Happy Birthday Mayor!

Residents, you should have seen himz today. Prancing from VMI to Washington and Lee like a young pup. I am just so happy! Himz moved like a young pup!

Someone told me that petting himz made their weekend!

Can you believe that our Mayor is 10 years old? I love himz x 10 bazillion.

    I am sure that Chaps thought the parades and marching were in his honor for his visit and his birthday!

    I am sure it was to everyone’s delight at VMI that Chaps, Emma you and your mom came for a visit.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAPS!
