What's up dog?

Buddy turned 12 in late July, got a bunch of presents, had a party AND got a massage from one of his favourite people, Kellie from Dogkind Bodywork - he is now an official Ambassadog for her and working hard to get the word out there to all of the other old boi's and girls because she has made such a big difference to his quality of life and every dog deserves that. Another with the vet who found his cancer and saved his life, showing the four legged young'ans he is still a force to be reckoned with in the waikato river.
