Hello. I have a senior black Labrador female. Her name is Lou Lou. We got her as a rescue 13 years ago. She was at least 3 years old, or older when we got her. So she is now 17 or 18 years old. Everyone is surprised that she is still around. Her front left leg is no good. They say her previous owner abused her. She also went through heart worm treatment before we got her. I take her walking everyday. I feed her. Very seldom does she not have an appetite. I hope she lasts longer. This is an extraordinary dog.
Oh, bless her! I hope my precious girl has Lou Lou's longevity! (A long way to go yet, she's only going on 5)
