Dog Gets His Own Driver's License For His Birthday

Getting a car for your 16th birthday is the ultimate present — so when Allie Miller’s dachshund Moose approached his milestone birthday, she knew exactly what to do to make it a special one. <div><br></div><div>“We jokingly call Moose our little grumpy old man when really he is one of the sweetest pups I know,” Miller told The Dodo. “He’s extremely goofy and his old age has not slowed him down a bit!”</div><div><br></div><div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIaX7xW2YczGnTaIeyfD-MaXr5VN3-1VIc9-S6DwyTVnSBOz3YOXDuTfvi8XXyMOGUDEc5gf8Zo_cET-S83KBBrJiFBRc3jdckG_9C8-IL1WL96c-L9ctDCmT5Ot-TmJ_3VHMolvI1aZh4/s1600/scale%253Bjpeg_quality%253D60.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="" border="0" class=" " data-original-height="1570" data-original-width="1584" height="317" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIaX7xW2YczGnTaIeyfD-MaXr5VN3-1VIc9-S6DwyTVnSBOz3YOXDuTfvi8XXyMOGUDEc5gf8Zo_cET-S83KBBrJiFBRc3jdckG_9C8-IL1WL96c-L9ctDCmT5Ot-TmJ_3VHMolvI1aZh4/s1600/scale%253Bjpeg_quality%253D60.jpg" title="" width="320"></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Allie Miller (photo credit: The Dodo)</td></tr></tbody></table></div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Moose loves eating Popsicles, barking at squirrels, going on walks with the neighbor’s dog — as well as taking relaxing rides in the car. For senior pup’s birthday, Miller not only got Moose a little car of his own but a driver’s license to make sure everything was “legal.” </div><div><br></div><div>Miller made the special license herself, and the final result was perfect: “I found a stock image online and Photoshopped everything to be accurate for Moose,” Miller said. “I wanted it to look as real as I possibly could to make the joke even better.”</div><div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2pZ1x2YGWBeyJH2L6Xr8F14wp_PZ3ncdu72wiA57arE7SMzEBmVwE55RFDPVlN-stjCYeuXGMIujBvUuPV84HDdXhgMvKX8REIGRa5xinPhk-CqVfWt-ObbsTPbxIkNmMVEc_Lena39UK/s1600/scale%253Bjpeg_quality%253D60%25282%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1861" data-original-width="1584" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2pZ1x2YGWBeyJH2L6Xr8F14wp_PZ3ncdu72wiA57arE7SMzEBmVwE55RFDPVlN-stjCYeuXGMIujBvUuPV84HDdXhgMvKX8REIGRa5xinPhk-CqVfWt-ObbsTPbxIkNmMVEc_Lena39UK/s1600/scale%253Bjpeg_quality%253D60%25282%2529.jpg" width="272"></a></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left; clear: both;">When Moose’s birthday arrived, Miller placed him in a Little Tikes car adorned with a big bow next to his license for a special photo shoot.
