The Happiest Place on Earth...

Petsmart!  Well, Maxx thinks so at least!  

We always take Maxx with us when we go, and I can honestly say I've only gone without him twice.

It wasn't nearly as much fun as when he goes!  We take him in the car with us a lot, but he always seems to know when we are destined for Petsmart and gets so excited!

See that blur of a tail?  Yeah, that tail doesn't stop moving the whole time we are in the store!

Maxx will be one year old February 14th!  He has grown so much since we got him.  We use the store's scale every now and then to weigh him.  We've been thinking he looks a little...roley poley, and at 42 pounds he's probably getting close to pushing his limits.  We are working on getting him more exercise! 

This trip to the store was slightly special.  Maxx got to pick out a new tag for his collar!  Okay...we picked it out (he has horrible taste in such things).  The one he had was from the shelter and fit him just fine when he was this big:

Aww, look how tiny!

Now that he is twice as big as Zoey he definitely needed an upgrade!

Check out my awesome, very grown up Air Force collar!

Here is the old one.  Tiny and always bugged me that you could see more of his yellow tag (microchip info tag) more than his name tag.  

Laser engraving his name.

We picked out a bigger one, and then got to use the stores laser tag engraving machine.  This thing was so cool.  Easy to use and so neat to watch the little laser beams etch into the metal!

New tag!

Look how grown up!  The new tag has his name and phone number on the back, and this fetching bone design on the front.  I actually liked the paw print design better, but he does LOVE his bones so this one is more appropriate!

He's so spoiled.  We also picked Zoey up a laser light to play with so she didn't feel left out!

Just in case you have the Lady and the Tramp new collar scene stuck in your head now...oh just me?  Ok, then for some Disney cuteness...
