It’s that time of year again: Charlie the beagle dog’s birthday! My feisty pup turned 9 this year and as is our tradition I make him his favorite food to celebrate: Lobster! Yes, you read that right I feed my dog lobster. He loves it more than anything and dances around like a puppy when he sees and smells it. Sometimes he just gets a plate of steamed Maine Lobster, other years I make him a special dish.
Here are two of Charlie’s birthday Lobster meals from years past:

Lucky Dog Lobster and Potato Hash with Hollandaise

Lobster Roll 

This year I decided to make my favorite Lobster Thermidor. Charlie isn’t a fan of mushrooms so he had a heaping plate of fresh lobster for his dinner. We also treated the pups to birthday dog cookies from my favorite dog bakery back home 3 Dogs and a Chick. You can order from their Etsy page here.
 
Happy Birthday Charlie Brown! You are one loved pup!
 
Charlie loves me but he’s a Daddy’s boy all the way!

Soft and sweet lobster meat from two Maine Lobsters (tails and claws). 
Roughly chop and set aside while you make the filling.
Charlie digging in to his plate of lobster! Happy boy!
I use kitchen shears to cut the tails open and rinse them out.
Then simply stuff with your lobster filling, top with cheese and paprika, 
and bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.
Serve with lemon and a sprinkle of parsley! Creamy and absolutely delicious!
 
 
 
 We didn’t forget Charlie’s (and Dylan’s) dessert!
We love you Charlie.
