Oh my. Well, I think sometimes dogs do better with things because they don’t know they are supposed to feel sorry for themselves. They just get on with life, once they figure out it’s not going to change. Good for you and good for her. I have loved my old ones best. Puppies are fun, but dogs are best after about age 7. They get better and better.

Your right, puppy's are a lot of fun and cute, but they are also a lot of work...I do have a soft spot for senior dogs, but then again I just had my 73rd birthday...could be me and senior dogs can commiserate together...we understand age has problem...:O)
