| My favorite photo of Bolt, taken April 2020 b. June 2007 - d. April 2025 |
Trigger warning. Description of a dog slipping into frailty and then going to the vet for one last trip. Not too physically graphic, but descriptions of the dog mom's sorrow.
Everything that is living is aging. Our beloved dog, Bolt, has been slowing down over the last couple of years. He is a rescue dog, so we were not certain of his age when we adopted him, but the vet guessed that he was about 15 months old. In June of 2024, he turned 17, which was remarkable given that his probably breed (Indian Spitz) lives for an average of 12 years.
We adopted him in Kansas when our children were about 11 and 8 years old.
