A Milestone

I'm very late in posting this but I wanted to get the vacation posts out of the way. But on June 11, 2013..Shane turned 14 years old.  I think that is a big deal.  I honestly don't know a whole lot about his first 13 years. But I do know more than I care too about the last 4..and they certainly were not good..deplorable actually.
So we figure this was his best birthday in a long, long time.  And to have a greyhound reach 14..that is something!
So Happy Birthday, Shane (belated).  He is a good boy with a great personality.  I wish he'd have had more of opportunities to be a "Meet and Greet" dog before his back legs became too weak to stand for too long.  He really does love attention!
So we are happy to have spent this birthday with him!  We think we've managed to shove in a lot of "the good life" for him in the last 6 months...



Happy Birthday, Shane!

He must have a fabulous constitution to survive till 14 in spite of poor treatment!

Thank you for loving him!

Happy Birthday Shane. What a lovely lad you are.

So glad he found you and the time he has left, which i hope will be a long time, he enjoys life to the fullest.

I'm so glad he found his way to you! Every dog deserves to be loved and celebrated, especially in those golden years. Fourteen is definitely something to celebrate!

Belated Happy Birthday to Shane. Looks like he made the most of his big day, here's hoping he gets to celebrate quite a few more birthdays with you.
