Recently I came across some information that places Biggie’s birthdate in February, 2006. That makes him EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD!!! And, at least for the most part, he still acts like a puppy. Yes, he is almost completely deaf, he is losing his eyesight, he still has a few teeth, and he can't jump. He is white after all. But his health is good, and he still likes to go for walks and spend time outdoors.
I haven’t had much opportunity to spend time with him this past year, and I'm not certain how to correct that. Biggie's mom does not have a car, and neither do I. Also, even if I owned a car, I am no longer able to drive due to my own health problems. Still, I am not entirely without getting my “Biggie fix" from time to time. Occasionally someone is able to bring him over for a visit.
Recently I saw a video his mom took of him outdoors and off leash. Biggie was having fun running and playing just like a young pup. It made me very happy to see him like this. I hope he remains this way for many more years.
