Our last two old pups we couldn't be prepared we didn't have the signs until suddenly and then of course it was winter. You will fool them, just watch.

We don't celebrate birthdays as we are all "rescue" animals and therefore Mom doesn't know when we were born so, we all celebrate when it's her birthday. That must be pretty creepy though to have them digging your grave already. Geez, that's worse than getting all those AARP things in the mail when your in your 40's so Mom remembers. But then us Midwesterners are a practical people and we "do what needs to be done". I hope you enjoyed your birthday and that the Arthritis doesn't get you down. I have it now too but Annie doesn't but her back hurts her sometimes when she goes up and down stairs. Old age is not for the faint of heart! Hang in there!

He takes Previcox every day to help arthritis, and it is very, very helpful for him. He still goes on long hikes with the young dogs every day, and he is still the farm boss! He only needs half of the normal dose of Previcox at this point to keep him comfortable. I hope he will be with me for more years to come. farm buddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02746039869965536774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-23075585602300487002015-10-25T09:39:15.515-05:002015-10-25T09:39:15.515-05:00Happy Birthday Chance!
