They take a lot longer to grow up.
3 years a young dog, 3 years a good dog, 3 years an old dog and anything else is a blessing.

That's funny

a few people have met us half way to bring her back, she sticks around us fairly good for the most part and her recall is getting better. I get a little worried when we go for walks when we run into a dog off leash and no one is around. She's super friendly herself but you never know about the other dogs, and almost every one we run into to tries to mount her and she could care less who's the dominant one, let's just play!!
It's was quite funny tonight on our walk, we ran into 2 cats and they were going to defend their territory no matter what! They were both wearing bells on their collars and when we passed them you could hear the bells, we would stop turn around and they would stop, when we started to walk again they would too and when we looked behind again they would stop, they did this 4 or 5 times. Who would of thought cats were to worry about
