"Cujo" checking out Speedy the turtle. 

Looks like we now have a pet turtle. I've named him Speedy, he really can move fast! I now have 3 dogs, 2 birds, 3 fish and a turtle. Jack (a.k.a Cujo) is my oldest. He is 12 now and deaf as a door nail, he's also losing it mentally I fear. Last year he had back surgery and that's when everything changed. He went from a hyper dog with stammina, to an OLD dog in the blink of an eye. He had blown a disk and was suffering from Myscina Gravis ( I KNOW I spelled that wrong). After the surgery, he did not liked to be hugged any more. Hence the new name Cujo, he bit my friend Kerry in the face 3 weeks before her wedding. Luckily it was a small cut and it healed nicely. And no, I'm not worried about him biting Pudd'n. Pudd'n has always ignored Jack.
Any way, it has been hard watching my dog get old. It's hard for him to get up and he sleeps so damn hard now that our house could be robbed and he would not wake from his slumber. He saves all his energy for playing with the Goat puppy. Those two are bonded. Why do our pets have to grow old so quickly? Why can't they live much longer lives? It's just not fair........
