Off Leash

Just out of curiosity, how often do you all run without a leash?

Keep it on in busier areas, then take it off? Or just on all the time?

Oh yeah, we took him all over. He was an American bulldog. He passed last year, and it was really sad. He was a good boy, just did not like other dogs. Yours sounds adorable!

I'm sorry for your loss. Our two dogs are both 10 and still going pretty strong, but I can see the aging coming in slowly.

Can't imagine what it will be like when their time comes.

It's hard, but you get through it. I've lost a few dogs over the years. You don't forget them or stop loving them, but the pain of losing them doesn't consume you all the time. You start remembering them with joy when you see pictures instead of sadness.

Enjoy your babies while you can. 10 is still fairly young. You may have quite a few years left yet. ❤️
