Mommy has a little lamb

Above is my Jumping Jake Photo from 2007. Jake has been the most active dog we ever had. Full of energy and always ready to play until he drops....Chase a ball until we could throw no longer.

 He gave new meaning to the word Hyper!

Since he can no longer chase his ball, we let him carry it, while he follows me around and around the pool deck.
I walk, he follows. I stroll because it is to hot to move faster, I sing Mama has a little lamb, little lamb, his face is white as snow, he follows mama every where she goes.

I stopped walking and took photos of him strolling with the ball in his mouth. the 4th bloc is a bucket upside down the next to last white cotton at the bottom is Daddy's head, Bob was in the pool watching us.
His sight is so bad, we can't leave him in the yard alone, because he can't swim if he falls in the pool,

Daddy walks him on a leash around the neighborhood, and Mommy walks him round and round the pool,
Our heart is so full of love as we watch our beloved Jake aging more each day.. he will be 14 in January.

Jakes meds are doing great and working well, most of the time. He still has moments of pacing/panting but then I give him a calming treat... it works in about 20 minutes to half hour. some days are good some are not. for all Three of us seniors. When he paces for 3 hours at a time, my heart breaks and we wait.

for all the years of our marriage we have had dogs that bark and let us know if someone strange is here. Now his hearing is gone and he can't hear the knock on the door or see them walk in front of the window.  I don't sleep as well as I used to because I am the only person in the house that can HEAR..

Question: Do you have a pet? or pets? Do you have angel pets in heaven?

We had Max, alone, Baby and Cooper together for 3 years, then 3 and 2 and now 1 sweet boy.

We have 3 in heaven from our 33 years together.
