Happy First Birthday Coco Loco

Happy First Birthday to our lovely poodle Coco!  She has grown a lot since we got her last August when she was just 8 weeks old, a tiny puppy that looked like a little stuffed animal. She was so cute she almost looked fake. Coco has become an important member of the family, and is truly the perfect family dog - extremely friendly, loves people, loves kids. She's also getting smarter as she's growing out of the puppyhood. Here is Coco's first year in photos. (I was trying to put them is a chronological order, but it didn't quite work. I hope you'll be able to figure it out anyway and see the change.)

These are the most recent pictures of coco, from the Bayshore Gardiner County Park, which is one of the rare parks where you can take dogs to the beach. It was Coco's first time in the ocean, and she took to it happily.
