So, over to you, Shaz…
Taz The Dog: ’s Pet
Taz is a rescue dog and he's been filling our days with love for 15 years (he'll be 16 at the end of August).
We almost lost him in November to a particularly nasty bacteria that lives in the soil and comes to the surface when there's a lot of rain so we're extremely grateful for every single day extra we have with him.
His hearing has gone and his sight has deteriorated with old age although he's still active and mobile, loves going out, but does enjoy a stint in his dog carriage when he's tired.


He lets us know when he's recovered his strength by trying to jump out of the carriage! And still loves playing although he does it laying down these days :)
He can't jump up into his chair like he used to, so we recently bought him his own dog sofa which he loves!
He's very protective at home and has a deep bark that scares anyone off (he's really gentle!) and scares off bigger dogs when we're out walking.
So many funny memories over the years it's hard to pick one.
Maybe the first time he saw and played in snow which he absolutely loved (we don't get much snow on the south coast UK!).
You’re never too old to have fun! 😊
If you have older pets, what’s their favorite thing to do?

Hi Jodie, Thank you for featuring Taz :) I'd love to know what other older dogs get up to ...
