It is not unusual for Nancy to suffocate me with hugs and telling me how much she loves me, but “enough is enough already” as you humans say, right?! No, I must say, I don’t quite agree with that at all because I never grow tired of her hugs and her constant display of her affection for us dogs. Besides, you probably would hug me too if you saw the growth on my eye that will be removed next week by Dr. Jackie Piepkorn. Months ago, my growth was checked out and it seemed OK, but then, it grew and off to the Vet we went again last week.
Anyhow, so as you read my blogs you will soon discover that both Nancy and I are very much aware that we are aging. We don’t seem to hurry on our walks like we once did as I keep reminding Nancy that it is vital to relax while strolling with us poodles. I really do love this fall season, all the swishing through the leaves and the gorgeous colors on all the trees. It is that short season to prepare our jumping and fetching skills to be able to continue such fun in the winter snow season. You know, I came to Minnesota from Toronto in the midst of all that snow. Yup, I think I can dig up some photos of playing in the snow as a youngster.
I was a pretty cute little guy back then.
Now, I am suppose to act my age, but that comes naturally while I feel my arthritis settling in more and more. When Harmony visited (Jill Lurye’s standard poodle puppy) I decided that it was just as important to mentally feel young as the physical health. I can make all kinds of excuses for not being 100% physically in shape now – I am sure you can too!?
