smurfette Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Since I discovered how to post videos you, my friends from all around the world, are doomed... 😉  Between two hailstorms I took the greyts for a nice walk in the woods. The sandy ground is just perfect for 13 year old Andy to walk on. Here he isn't bothered to much by his lumbosacral stenosis or his laryngeal paralysis. I wanted to share this because I love him to bits. My sweet old boy.  Quote Sorry for butchering the english language. I try to keep the mistakes to a minimum.  Nadine with Paddy (Zippy Mullane), Saoirse (Lizzie Be Nice), Abu (Cillowen Abu) and bridge angels Colin (Dessies Hero) and Andy (Riot Officer).

JohnF Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Thanks for sharing that atmospheric video of your happy Andy  Looks very like my much-loved oldie Peggy, only she 'knows' when cameras are being pointed and usually looks away.  Sand is a great surface for the older ones to exercize on. Muddy grass in the park caused problems for Peggy's always easy to injure right front leg from racing days on Thursday. She was still on Tramadol for the teeth and just took off like a youngster twisting and turning really tight. The word 'No!" had zero effect. Usually takes about ten days to resolve.

Remolacha Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 :beatheart  Isn’t it odd how the oldies seem to be more comfortable trotting than walking. Conner is very wobbled and gimpy at a walk, but trots along like a healthy young guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EllenEveBaz Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Beautiful place for a walk. Andy's white eyelashes are amazing! Â That's why Andy mostly walks off lead. This way he is able to set his own path. It's easier for him on walks. I did this as much as possible with dear Nutmeg as she got older. She did so enjoy being able to sniff and trot around in her rickety old-lady type way.
