Sheba is going to be 11.
She has such a hard time laying down and getting back up.
She also walks with a stiff gait.
(once she is up, she does just fine)

She is much more affectionate, but is less patient when it
comes to being brushed and having her nails done.

She is also more grumpy towards little Pepper when
she comes over to visit.

But she is as purdy as ever.
I think they're even prettier when they're old - they develop such character!

Is Sheba on Rimadyl? Right ow Jake just takes it before a hike and the next day if he's sore, and on rainy days when he wakes up stiff.
