Romulus.

My one-year old Great Pyrenees, Romulus.

Yesterday was his birthday, but unfortunately I wasn't around to celebrate it. So today I'll probably be sitting on my kitchen floor all day, scratching his belly and making up for his lack of being able to lap up a piece of ice cream cake off the kitchen floor. Hopefully he'll forgive me.

I know he's a little dirty, and by the way, I also know it's not the best picture. But I don't really mind, because this dog has been one of my best friends for the last year; my camera can't capture the things he's done for me.
