This week marks a very special milestone for a very special dog. Stiggy, the gentle soul who has spent over a decade filling his family’s life with love, joy, and loyalty, is celebrating his 13th birthday.

Thirteen years is a lifetime of memories — from playful puppy days and long walks under the sun to quiet evenings curled up at home. Through every stage, Stiggy has been more than a pet; he has been a constant companion, a loyal friend, and the heart of his family.

Though age has slowed him down a little, and his hips may not carry him as swiftly as before, Stiggy’s eyes still shine with the same warmth and kindness that have always defined him. Behind those eyes is the same best friend who has stood faithfully beside his family through every chapter of life.

On his special day, Stiggy doesn’t ask for much. All he needs is what he has always cherished most — the love of his family, a soft place to rest, and maybe a few extra birthday treats to make the day even sweeter. For him, that is happiness in its purest form.

“Every day he’s here is a gift worth celebrating,” his family shared. And it’s true — each moment with Stiggy is a reminder of the beauty of unconditional love and the quiet power of loyalty.

Today, his family honors not just his birthday, but everything he represents: devotion, gentleness, and the joy of simply being together.

Here’s to Stiggy — the goodest boy, the truest friend, and the soul of his family. Happy 13th birthday, handsome! May the years ahead be filled with comfort, love, and all the tail wags you’ve given so freely.
