My old dog hit the ripe old age of sixteen a month ago - and I mean ripe. I never thought he'd make it as he's been a bit wonky for a couple of years now. The back wheels are a wee bit all over the place from time to time but he's not in any distress and still eats well.
He never goes far unless he's having one of his disoriented moments but he did finish up a couple of doors down the other day. The girl who lives there came rushing over concerned that he may have been hit by a car. I said no, he's fine, he always walks like that. It all could have been so different though.
At the tender age of nine weeks we managed to sink a boat with him in it in the middle of Auckland Harbour under the harbour bridge but that's another story.......
