Party Time Buddy For The New Year

Dogs love to party! They party everday day. Any reason to party is good for dogs. The party when they are taking a walk........look at their smiles. And the beach is the unlimate party. Oh my God look at them dig, and sniff and when the find stinky stuff, they roll. Jetta was a roller on my Lord the stinky dog order. Thank God Bud never learned that..........Dog don't make New Year resolutions for the furture.I don't make then either...... just feel bad when you don't keep your promise to yourself. God know that we humans can be hard on ourselfs. Dog wake up happy ever morning. Bud comes to see me with his sweet wet kisses. Kiss for dog floods my brain with serotonim

Why I Take Bud To Warm Water Therapy

Buddy is a old dog he sometimes starts to lose his footing on walk. Bud is great shape for his age. Buddy has arthrits, from old age like me. He is on the best meds avaialbe. Of course i keep his weight at 74 lbs. Perfect! I walk him slow for about 20 mins on day and the next day we go to the beach. The way we go is 4 or 5 blocks to the beach stairs. The Bud barks for a ball in his then he takes the stairs one step a a time. He goes 2 flight down and 2 flights. Down on the beach he goes for a frizbe toss. not too far just so he can get his workout. I stop him in 15 min and when he climbs the stairs up he rests the he gets a drink of cool water..... he walks home slow but steady. We get home he takes a nap until dinner time. After dinner he wants to play for 10 minutes or so. ..Bud is a special boy. He has swam all his life. Look how good his legs go in the water. He gives me kisses after our towel game. This makes me happy. Swimming will keep his hind legs strong for as long as possible. I do water therapy too. it has kept me going for 73 yr and counting...................love my Buddy !
