Bud Helps Mom On Cold Windy Day --According to Bud
This afternoon the beach was cold and windy. Mom took me to our beach anyway. We played with my beach old red frizbee. Mom can throw it. Her back gets tired now because mom says shes not young anymore. Then she sits down on the stairs and throws.She makes me put it in her hand or she wouldn't play. When I bark at her to go faster, she looks away. (Rude)
Today as we left I carried the frizbee up the stairs as i usually let Mom pick it up.
(She says i'm lazy.)
Mom climbed all the beach stairs and then she looked down and saw my old beach frizbee on the bottom of the stairs.
Mom looked at me and said," BUDDY GET THE FRIZBEE OR WE LEAVE IT HERE. I ran down the stairs and got the toy and i carried it up all the way to Mom.
Mom said what a good boy I guess you are ready for dinner. Yes home for food. What a good girl.

Helping Old Bud Play
Now that both me and Bud are seniors some thing have to change. Like I can't walk on the beach alone anymore. I suffer with arthritis too. Bud has it in his left knee from when he blew his knee out when he was five. He was in awesome shape as he is now. He is on a wonder drug from the vet and i have for many years given him fatty acids. Now is eye sight is different not so sharp as when he was young. He needs help finding balls or a small stick at the beach. Now i bring down a bigger colored ball or a colored frizbee. It helps him find the toy because he never has looked where its going.Bud just goes is shearch mode with his nose. I say to him"Buddy use the good nose you were born with baby. He runs in wide circles. His nose is still very keen. Several days ago the morning was drearly and when i woke up Bud was not in my bed. I got up early that am because i couldn't fall asleep again.
I put his food out and still no Bud, i ate my breakfast and still no Bud. I started tripping out. I thought oh my God he died! I called and called. No Bud.Then i looked in my bedroom room and saw him sleeping. I came close to make sure he was still breathing! Oh the stress over an older dog! Buddy mother live to be 13 or 14. she was in good shape too.
Dogs do not fear death we do the worrying for them. They live in the moment to the fullest of fun.I moan every am when i do my exercises, I never hear Bud moan. Bud gives me a job every day to keep me happy. I take him to play at the beach and my day gets happy. Dog know the rule of peace and joy. My job is to take care of my boy for as long as he lives, this keeps me going forward.
By the way Bud does know how old he is --to him he is 2 going on 3! Bud loves his new red frizbee.
