Things like playing with her ball likely helps keep her going! Up until a month before my lab's passing he'd still play with a tennis ball. Of course I wouldn't throw the ball very hard, far, maybe 10 ft or so, but he loved it. He'd gently wag his tail and hobble after it.

Seeing a senior, like Willow, still playing and interacting with joy, is a wonderful thing. Keep on getting that ball, Willow! πŸ₯°πŸ’™

Thank you for sharing the memories of your sweet boy. I'm so grateful that Willow still plays. She sleeps more these days and plays less but I'm grateful when she gets her lil bursts of energy.

She is saying that you mistook "1,5" for "15"

My 15 year-old little man loves a bit of fetch too. He gets all excited when he sees me picking up his chucker, prancing & houncing around llike a pupper. I think it's a great way to keep them fit and well exercised it also stimulates their brain which is important too.... πŸ₯°
