Black Dog Sunday

We are grateful that our Black Dog is having nothing but smooth sailing this summer!
He's now closer to eleven years old than ten... and he still runs every single day on our mountain trails. If I catch a glimpse as he and the Runner start out, I see our Black Dog with his leash in his mouth, enthusiastically urging the Runner to start out faster!

R has his mandatory every 4 month ultrasound coming up, just to keep an eye on the size of his splenic and adrenal tumors. He's had the tumors for almost a year now, and they haven't grown. My fingers are crossed that the trend holds.

Here's to more happy summertime adventures with our Black Dog!
Every adventure is better with our Black Dog!!!

  4. R your photos are glorious and make our hearts warm. Mom aka eagle eye noticed that you might possibly have a bell on your collar, which we assume is your bear bell. Is she seeing things?
    Keep moving black beauty
    Hugs madi and mom
