We adopted Jake when he was 5 years old. It was just a few months since our german shepherd Timber had died from a hemangiosarcoma in his heart. I wasn’t sure I was ready for another dog yet, but Jake came to stay with us for a weekend, and he just melted my heart! We spoiled him so much!
He enjoyed his first Christmas with us… and of course we had to embarress him by making him wear the antlers!
He guarded our tree against the squirrel invasion.
Then in February… he was no longer an only child. We brought home his new baby brother, Wolfie. Jake wasn’t sure about all this… Wolfie stuck to Jake like glue… Everywhere that Jake was, you would find Wolfie.
Jake couldn’t even sleep on the couch by himself… Wolfie had to lie on top of him.
Wolfie finally wore Jake down… and they became the best of friends!
What a pair–beautiful. Love the big brother / little brother pics.
We bought the boot from handicappedpets.com (and his Ruffwear harness) primarily to prevent compression soars on his pads. I read an article…. Our walks are on neighborhood streets and I thought it might help. I’ll play it by ear as his walks increase–see how his paw handles it. You never know, we might find other purposes. Slippery floors sounds like a good reason. We put carpet remnants all over the place, which I’m going to remove soon. Do you have an issue with slipping on floors?
I dont know how to use the blog temlate but it looks good I reckon. I have no clue how/why things are linked, how to answer comments, About–Edit? I tried to change the Avatar, etc…. (Good energy / Bad electricity)
@ Polo I’d say Polo’s Big Dog blog is awesome! Check out our WordPress dashboard help videos, especially the ones for posts, pages, themes and comments.
