I turned another year older right before Christmas and my dog Molly was right there beside me where she has been for the past 8 1/2 years. Thanks to the "dog year" she has slowly passed me in age and we are now bearing down on middle age together. We have alot of the same aches and pains in our joints but we still like to act like "young pups" once in a while but, damn, do we pay for it later.
When I first got Molly from the Humane Society, it was determined that Molly would be an outside dog and guard the fortress at the perimeter. I slowly began to move her inside and she slowly began to assume her role as the diva of Gibbs House. I recently found some old pictures of her and she was so small and could barely jump on the bed. She has always had personality and a flair for the camera and she quickly assumed the title of full fledged diva. Her activities include demanding her treats on time, getting the couch pillows fluffed on the couch before she takes a nap, and a bedtime of 7:30. Its Molly's World....She just lets me live in it....
