Piper at the lake
My girl is getting old:
Where: Upstate NY
When: August 2011
We had the opportunity to spend the weekend at a friend's parent's lake house, and it was absolutely lovely. Piper had a great time, but it made me realize that she's really starting to slow down. Her face is getting whiter, and while the opportunity to romp around in a lake would once have sent her racing in uncontrollably crazy circles, this time she was notably restrained, indulging in a matronly wade to stomach depth, pausing with eyes half closed and a contented expression, then wading back out. I think she enjoyed herself anyway, but it was a reminder that we probably only have a few years left with her.
Here she is looking a little more lively:

It's always sad to see adog getting old. They still love human company though. I'm lucky both my current ones are young...........too young...lost them for an hour this morning. Again!
