Gyps is slowing up bless her

[blackdogs]

Aww bless her she is doing realy well

[sami]

I know where you are coming from with Gypsy. Sami is just 12 and somedays she still seems like a pup but you get brought down to earth with a bang when shes having a bad day and looks really old. She's still my little lady tho. Unfortunately you cant do anything to change it, just make them as happy and comfortable as possible while you have them.

12yrs a fantastic age Coleen, it is sad to see them age, I count every day as a blessing, The deff not here long enough xx

It's scary where the time goes Colleen - if only we could halt time and keep them at a certain age eh!

Although sounds like she's still quite happy to protect her home from the dreaded neighbours cat....lol

I agree with Sarah we NEED piccies!

To get her to 12 is a great achievement Colleen, every day is a blessing. Give Gypsy belly rubs from me, but make sure you give her a lift back up afterwards lol

I know exactly how you feel. Harry's nearly 14, Arch soon to be 11 and Ella-Bella has just turned 9.

My vet describes Arch as very young at heart - which he is and he has very little grey on him - but he has slowed down and doesn't run as much any more. The years pass too quickly....if only we had a pause button.
