Actually I just have one dog. Dudley was originally  from a 3 Setter home. He lived with blind Keegen, who, at 100 pds, became Alpha Dog and made Dudley miserable. Keegen kept knocking Dudley over by accident and stealing his kibbles. The owner didn't want to take care of an 'oldie,' so Dudley landed on my doorstep several years ago. I like to think the darling old guy 'chose' me. He's certainly getting the 'spa treatment' here with massages and hydrotherapy for his arthritic legs. The best diet and meds the vet has to offer. BTW, Keegen is amazing for a blind dog. Has memorized his house and walking routes! I think blind dogs do better than people in same condition.

BTW, I thought the pix was cool with heads facing camera but legs opposite. I.S have such a proud demeanor.
