Penny's little birthday on the balcony

Penny turned 3 in June. I wanted to do something special but I did not know what Thai people do for dog birthdays. I asked a friend from work and she said just a small cake and some friends. So I made a simple party on the small balcony of my condo in Phra Pradaeng. Three corgis from the building came with their owners. The owners were very friendly, and one lady brought homemade peanut butter cookies. Penny wore a little paper crown I bought at the market in Samut Prakan. She kept looking at the cake, not really eating it, just sniffing.

The condo juristic office was okay with the party as long as we clean up after. We wiped the balcony with a wet towel and the security guard helped us move the chairs. It was hot but the fan worked well.

Penny is a happy corgi now. In Japan we do not celebrate dog birthdays so much. Maybe I will keep this tradition here, Thai people really love their pets.
