Old dogs are so bittersweet. Our old girl stopped waking up and greeting us at the door every time we come home a couple weeks ago. Now this week her hips are starting to give her trouble.
I'm sorry I only got the last 9 of her 15 years so far, and seeing that the water is going out for good is hard.
We still have her for now though.
Two nights ago, she felt good enough for a short walk, and surprisingly she felt spry enough to catch, kill and eat a field rat along our walking trail.
She tried to bring it in the house, but my lovely bride objected so she had to eat it outside.
