Many friends and even colleagues have been asking me about my dog.  How is he doing?  He is an old dog, right? Is he still alive? The answer is that he is doing well even though he was diagnosed with intestinal lymphoma and is currently going through chemo treatments to beat it...and man, is he beating it.  He has a completely new lease on life and doesn't seem to let anything keep him down.  Sometimes he has his bad days but that typically comes after a chemo treatment but in all he is still a surprisingly energetic dog with an interest in food and various small dogs...its like he's a dog.  

What more can I say, we are delighted to have him and he means the world to us.  He is an old soul that is happy to be spending his golden years with people that care about him and love him.  I am happy he has become a part of our family and I cannot imagine not coming home to him every day.  We have officially had him for one year so I raise my glass to you old man and say, "Happy Birthday Riley". You are still a puppy in our eyes. Keep those spirits high and stick around for a couple more years, ok?     IMG_6046 IMG_5915 - Version 2 IMG_0069 IMG_0070
