Hanging out here postponing my painting endeavors I pet my old lab CJ. 3/4 yellow lab, 1/4 golden retriever. 12 years old in November 2012. He's been hunted hard, played hard, slept a lot farted alot and been an excellent dog. One scare in the 10 years of me being his dad. Nothing major. Like most labs his hips bother him, yet he powers through. His whole life he only aimed to serve and please. Even in his old age, hips hurting, vision not as good - "what can I do for ya pa", that is if he could speak. I love and care this dog more than most people I meet. He is my longest standing best friend.
Sorry to ramble just my thoughts as of lately.
