Cute Not Old Dogs

moodypdx pointed out, Maxie is very gray these days. Her spot, at least, is all but disappearing. My mother and I can never keep track of when we got her, ('01? '02?) so we're also confused as to how old she is. I'd say it's somewhere between 11-13. And yes, she does continue to get cuter on a daily basis.

Consequently that would make Toby almost 10. Really? 10? In my mind he's perpetually about seven. I do see that's he's calmed down a bit these days and seems overall a bit more relaxed and certainly less stressed. Mostly he's just a sweet, happy boy now. He's definitely gone gray as well, although his coat is so light you can't really tell. His face is just much whiter than it used to be.

And Panic is about seven! This one I refuse to accept. On the 24th I will have had him for five years. Time is passing too quickly. I don't approve. He's got a lot of gray too, although to be fair he's been going gray for several years now--seven is still so young.

Lots of gray in our house, but I still insist that none of our dogs are old. Old is just a mindset, right? That's what my grandmother tells me anyway.
