Birthday Boy

Jonty's birthday today, 15 years old. He's getting a bit stiff legged, definitely getting deaf (unless he's just started ignoring us!), and he has these scabby cysts around his body, but he's quite happy and still wags his tail when I get the lead out.
He doesn't want a long walk nowadays though. Over to the park, a good sniff around and maybe do what dogs do. I pick it up and he heads for home.
In the photos he is
Top - finding the coolest place to lie down in the house (32 deg C outside!
Bottom Left - His birthday card from Bella and Hetty, the twins, with 'Uncle' on it. Julia always says Jonty is her Brother.
Bottom Right - early morning, when it was cooler, at the graveyard.
