100 Days of Ukulele with Puppy Ocean!

My 100 day project 2023 features my puppy golden retriever Ocean growing up from 9 to 23 weeks (22 lbs to 45 lbs).

For 100 days in a row, I sang a song to Ocean that was about a dog or included the word “dog” or “ocean.” I made it a goal to sing at least one song from each of the 46 people who suggested a song to me. For the finale, I chose 38 dog songs to create this doggie medley.
