It's a Dudley Kind of Day

That's our "old man." Dudley just turned 11. He's pretty active and fit for a dog of such advanced age - in fact most people think he's the youngest.
We had a bit of a scare last week. He went to the vet and got all his shots, then on Saturday he couldn't climb the stairs and was stiff and sore.
We gave him low doses of pain meds and anti-inflammatories. He's also the smartest dog we have - he knows when to lay low and rest. he's fine now and I'm thinking we have another 11 years with him.

  3. Oh, and Dudley, I feel stiff and achy after I get my flu shots. I eat chicken and sleep a lot. Mom's anti-inflammatories are a good second choice.
