That’s what they say right?

Every year on the day you were born, they make you a cake, put some candles on it, light them up, sing a song and the people who love you say “Make a wish.”

Birthday Boy

This week is Jack’s Birthday on August 28th, the day my Best friend was born. I got him when he was 4 months old and every birthday since then we have spent together. It feels like just yesterday I was holding him for the first time. How does the time go by so fast?! He used to fit in one hand and now he is so long and tall! He’s my big Pup now.

Personally, I’m not too keen on my birthday. It is just a reminder to me of all the things I haven’t done yet. A way for me to compare myself to other people my age and find new things I haven’t lived up to my potential on. Maybe I’m just a pessimist but for so many reasons it’s hard for me to be happy another year has gone by.

It might be that motherly instinct in me but I’m determined to make Jack feel differently about his birthday. So, It seems like a given, get your bestie a gift for their birthday. That shouldn’t change even if your bestie happens to be a dog, not a human, right? Every year I wish I could get my boy the perfect gift.

Now, you may not know this but I’m gonna let you in on a secret: My Jack Loves his Clothes. He hops around pouncing and prancing about in excitement the moment I pick up any of his clothes, because he knows what will happen next. He gets to wear them. And God Forbid I ever try and take them off to wash them, change his clothes, I don’t know let his hair blow in the wind or Omg SHOWER HIM, but hey that’s a whole ‘nother issue all together, we’ll get to that later. He throws the biggest fit crying and speaking what I refer to as his “Wookie language.” I’m convinced he is part-Wookie and somewhere out there they can hear him and know I am the worst for taking his clothes from him. But I can’t be the cool Dog Mom all the time, am I right?

The Big 5

Anyway – So every year I get him toys, treats, or I try to get him Clothes. But the clothes never seems to fit right. We all know there are so many options out there for dog clothes now, but not very many that fit just right. It can be so frustrating to shop and pay endless amounts of money always ending up with clothes that just won’t do. Is it so much to ask that we as Dog Parents have options that protect our pups from all weather types, still let them look cute and fit right all at once?

I know Jack can’t speak my language, so I have no idea if he wishes or what he wishes for, but I wish for him, for us. I wish every year I could give him the perfect gift. I wish I could give him the clothes he loves that would actually fit him properly.

This year he turns 5 and I can finally say our wish has come true. I can give him clothes that fit him perfect. Nothing is sliding off him. He doesn’t look like Winnie the Pooh in a crop top, with no bottom. He isn’t walking around hunching his back because the onesie is too short between front and back legs. He isn’t completely drowning in his clothes or can’t breathe because they are so tight. He finally has clothes that he can play and be happy in.

Dreams Do Come True 

I have never been prouder as a dog mom as the day I tried on the first Jacky Moon design on Jack and it actually fit him. I Literally cried. All I have ever wanted was to be able to give back to him for all he does for me every day. He is so selfless and has such empathy. I am just so taken aback with his unconditional love and support every day, I feel the need to give him everything I possibly can. I have been working so hard for so long on this idea and to be able to give this to him is just so emotional for me.

He is about to be 5 years old and this year he gets a whole new wardrobe. I know he will be so excited for all the clothes. I deff have to change where we store them because he has found that cubby and is constantly digging in it to pull out the garment he feels like wearing today and bringing that to me so I can put it on him.

It should be enough that I have this for my Jack and Padme, but as you probably know I’m only human so…. That’s not enough. It’s not enough that only my dog has the perfect fit, I want more. Call me selfish but I want more! I want everyone else’s bestie to have that perfect fit too. That’s what this whole dream has been about: Sharing the love I have for my four legged best friend with you and your four legged bestie.
