What they donโt tell you about having a dog
Everyone posts the puppy pics. The zoomies. The first birthday cake.
No one posts about this part.
Sebastian turns 9 in a few weeks. Lately Iโve been finding more gray around his muzzle. On his eyelashes. The places that used to be chestnut are going salt-and-pepper.
He still looks at me with the same eyes. Still has those shiny puppy eyes. But time is stealing him in tiny pieces and it guts me.
The sad reality of dogs is that we watch them grow old in fast forward. We get their whole lifetime, and they only get part of ours.
If your dog is young, take the picture. If your dog is old, take the picture. The gray hairs mean they stayed.
Love you, my silver fox ๐ฅบ๐ค
Letโs live long and healthy, together.
