Goose - Updated

As Bette Davis said, "Old age isn't for sissies."

Our furend Goose, and his mom, need our continued POTP.  Goose isn't ill but he is showing the effects of his age and is on a continued journey of decline.  He will be 15 years old next month!  He is still a happy boy but it is getting increasingly difficult for him to move around.  His Facebook pals know that he had to stop going for walks but the reality is that he is even having troubles moving around at home.  Michelle described it as heartbreaking to witness his struggles.

So although our pal "appears" to be doing well in the photos (Michelle says he does fine as long as he is sitting or laying) the reality is that he and his mom need lots of POTP as they journey hand-in-paw through this every difficult stage.

  11. Crikey ...... it sure is tough. Goose and my Nan must be about the same age now. She doesn't go out any more and she's having trouble getting around at home too. She's 96. We are just loving every minute we have left with her. I've been seeing from the pictures on Goose's blog that his Mom is doing just that with him too. It's about all anyone can do aye?? I'm sending lots of POTP from downunder!!

  17. Sending Goose some special hugs......it's really hard to reach a ripe old age then have such problems getting around. I just turned 15 myself and have problems being comfortable lying down or going up/down stairs. I do like to take naps though and that's my "escape" from discomfort. I hope Goose can at least be COMFORTABLE. I know he feels loved and safe and happy.....Miss Michelle is seeing to that.....so we'll send POTP and hope it helps!

    Hugs, Sammy (and Mom Pam)
