Happy 16th Lady

Post by Jaybird »

Can't believe my German Shorthair has made 16 years old. All her brothers and sisters died years ago. She just keeps hanging on, and bouncing back from age issues in a determination to cheat death. I picked the runt of the litter and the less healthy of the group with severe allergies, because I liked her spunk as a pup. She ended up the best hunter of the group, and a great companion. Her heart mermor should prevent seeing 17, but this dog will go until she can't get up. She was the same way hunting with a won't quit mentality. I was blessed to luck out with this one, and couldn't be happier for the 16 years I got to spend with one phenomenal dog.

Congrats, Jay. The love between a man and his dog is priceless. The unending devotion that a dog gives to us is priceless. I am happy for you that she is still around to lay by your feet at night, or sit by the side of the chair waiting for a scratch behind the ear. You are blessed to have had such a dog in your life....There is not a day that I don't miss my Springer, Hershey.. Mike

She just wants to show you what a real "old dog" is like. ;) May you not inherit that title for a long time.
