My first lived to be 13 and change. We thought he would have lived to be older except that last summer, he wandered away from our cottage on the cape and was found miles away walking up Rt6 dragging his chain and cinderblock. Heatstroked, never quite the same but still managed to knock up the neighbors samoyed that summer.

Princey when he was young (my grandmother's lovely rugs)

Our Kodi lived to be 12 after being diagnosed with DM at 9. Without the DM she may have been with us even longer.

She was a little chubby in this photo as she was unable to use her hind legs and needed to use a wheelchair.

Gia will be 10 in August... she's slowing down, but no where near being on her way out. I'm sure I can get a few more years outta her

...but the oldest large dog that I've had died the morning before his 17th birthday.

Lando was a few months shy of her 14th birthday.

Not long enough, that's for sure.
