As a “wide-trak” model, he needs to back out of tight places…

A couple of weeks ago (Oct 3), Excalibur (Buck-Sprinkle, nicknamed “Cal”) turned 10 years old. To say that he is an integral part of our family would be a vast understatement. We plan our schedule around him, we share special times together, and he is known throughout our neighborhood. In fact, he has become somewhat of the neighborhood watchdog and mascot…

He is still very shy and aloof around children but he “tolerates”, and sometimes even seems to enjoy our immediate neighbor children. He seems to enjoy watching them from a safe distance. If they approach, he will turn and walk away…

He had a recent checkup, and the Vet suggested that he should drop a few pounds, although, he could have been talking to me…

He is now 131 pounds, and other than a few Librella shots for his aging bones, is remains medicine-free. His diet is now a 50/50 mixture of his favorite, Taste of the Wild & Science Diet for Sensitive Stomachs. He loves his Liver Treats and due to my soft heart, he occasionally gets table scraps but Alice Stafford Brenners is training me to stop that. Im a terrible student…

So this morning in Dallas, it’s nice and cool, along with a good breeze, so we’re having breakfast on the Porch, and we thought that we would celebrate Cal,s 10th Birthday. He had his regular meal, along with a portion of a Birthday Bagel, and of course, a few licks of Blue Bell Buttered Pecan ice cream. I offered a few licks but he gobbled up the entire cone…

We hope that everyone has a great weekend - and let’s root for Number 6 rated Texas Tech. The Red Raiders remain undefeated…

Mom went to the store - and she didn’t even ask me to ride along…

What’s that all about???

I guess I’ll just have to wait by her place on the couch, and see what she brings me. I hope it’s my favorite liver treats…
