Dandy the yellow lab has not written anything on his blog in a while, ever since his bother labrador Duke passed a way a couple months ago.
Dandy is 12 years old and that is very old in dog years, and his arthritis is now getting worse. Yesterday he started having trouble walking, and we are not sure if he is going to make it for much longer.
Our great and wonderful veternarian, Steve Brian came to the house last evening and examined Dandy and put him on some mild pain relievers that may help him to deal with the arthritis. He is walking better today.
If he can deal with the pain and have a fairly comfortable life we would like to keep him around a little longer. We wont make him suffer just because of our selfish desire to keep him around, and the time will come when we will take that last ride to the vet, but not today!
