All of The Herd were rescued except for Queen Natasha the Evil. Thus, she is the only birthday that we actually know. We are shocked to discover that “Baby Bear,” as she was so affectionately called as a puppy versus her “Mama Bear” Nikita, is turning SEVEN years old today. She rules Chez Herd with an iron paw and has demanded that her subjects give her special treatment on this honorable day. But, since she demands special treatment every day, we are hard pressed how to define special.
The stare is powerful. Demanding. Even when caught doing something that is totally unacceptable, the piercing stare is defiant.
And this trait was learned young.
Let’s just say that some pups were born to be in charge. Want to know what our first hint was?
Happy Birthday, Baby Bear. And many, many, many more.

Woooooo Happy Birthday Queen Natasha!!
I love the 8 week old Baby Bear picture.
Layla has that demanding, defiant stare down too.
When I was learning German, our professor explained to us that the phrase, “Na, und?” is basically the bitchiest possible way to ever say “Yeah, and?” so I call that her “Na, und” face.
Happy Barkday Natasha! Demand the utmost pampering and spoiling on your special day!

Happy Birthday QTNE! As if there was evFur a question of who was in charge! Nobody understands how hard it is to be a ruler or 5 sibes. nobody. your life is so hard. make sure you get treated extra special today for all the hard work you do as leader. all that staring is very hard.
Happy Birthday, Natasha! I see you have a favorite pose! Perhaps you should demand pizza bones and beer for your birthday. Or maybe you should just make Hu-Dad take you somewhere special all by yourself! Whatever you do, we hope you enjoy yourself a lot!
A furry Happy Birthday Queen Natasha!! Hope you have a most PAWSOME day!!
Woofs and Kisses!

OMD Mum could feel that stare burning into her from here!
I am learning this Mind Meld, slowly but surely, however I don’t think I’ll ever be half as talented as QNTE!
Happy Birthday!
A very Happy Birthday Queen Natasha! We love your ‘attitude’ – nothing wrong with a strong, assertive female in our book.
Can we just say the puppy pics were soooooooo adorable!
Have a great day.
