Odin, with his tiny paws, floppy ears, and a wagging tail that signals his joy, may be small in stature, but he’s a big bundle of love on his special day. Residing in Mexico with Joyce Cetina and her family, Odin has filled their lives with warmth and affection since they adopted him three years ago.

Joyce shared with The Dodo, ‘He’s an incredibly devoted companion. He loves cuddling and playing, always bringing happiness to our home.

As Odin’s birthday neared earlier this month, the Cetina family wanted to go above and above to celebrate. They surprised Odin with a party to express how much they respect him.

Odin was astonished — and moved — to learn that they remembered his birthday:

The Cetinas had purchased a dog-friendly cake and decorated it.The surprise was then disclosed to Odin.

“He was a little perplexed at first. He had no idea what it was all about “Joyce said. “Then he noticed that all eyes were on him, and the cake was for him. He was overjoyed.”

Of course, no birthday would be complete without a happy birthday song — and Odin’s was no exception.

Odin was then given other gifts, which he also liked. “Above all,” Joyce added, “he appreciated the countless kisses and cuddles he received.”

Odin and other little dogs deserve nothing less.

Though it was Odin’s big day (or rather the anniversary of the day they adopted him), his family feels like they’ve received the greatest gift of all.

“Of course, Odin is adored and spoiled all year,” Joyce explained. “But today is a significant day for us since it is the day he entered our life. He brings us much joy.”

Here’s a video of Odin taking it all in (complete with his own special cake):

“He really liked it,” Joyce added.
