Hi Simba! He's looing so handsome!

OMG!!! Simba is 15?! He still looks like the same sweet boy... he's aged so gracefully, but of course he's had the best life a pound dog could ask for. I love the picture of you two. So cute!

It's nice to see Simba again. It's hard to believe all of our dogs are becoming senior citizens.

A bit of a pupdate on Simba...

He had a little old man episode yesterday so my parents brought him in. We ended up shooting some x-rays that show that his spleen is enlarged. He is getting an ultrasound tomorrow so that we can figure out what to do from there.

So, please keep him in your thoughts... I hope it isn't time. I don't think I can handle it at the moment, or if ever.

Here he is with me on my lunch break today. We had a little picnic out back.

Apparently, I did not see this thread first time around. Love Simba's smile, captured in that first photo!

Prayers from RI for Simba.

Awww, prayers that it is something fixable. Love the picture, we can tell your old man looooves his Kay!

Prayers being said for the "Gentle Old Man". Have a soft spot for those guys.

I don't know what an enlarged spleen entails but I hope it's something manageable??

Wishing all the best for beloved Simba.

Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way. It's so hard to watch our pets age.

Does he have cataracts? Or is it juts the lighting on the photo?
Except for some white hair on his muzzle, he really looks fine though!

Everything crossed that your boy continues to do well. He looks great for a nearly 15 year old .
