OK friends, the big bad 'C' has caught me. But I'm not dead yet.
It is great to have so many friends, good humans and good dogs from all over.
Thank you for your kind words. You've warmed our hearts!
But for now I've seen enough weeping and sorrow.
Today I showed my humans I can still do the dog things.
Like chasing the neighbour's cat out of our backyard. And walking our walks.
Marking the street. Sniffing the trees.
My eye looks funny. My nose keeps running. And I get tired quickly, I need a lot of sleep.
Extra food too. And extra cookies! I'm on a new special diet now. We'll see.
Hey, I've already had a pretty good life, I feel like I'm playing in overtime.

This photo shows me on a big hike, last month on Belle Īle, France. I took the lead.
Found the way back to our car. This is how I want my humans to remember me. And you..!
Big lick from Joop
