Rainy autumn Saturdays are for comfy cozy snoozling 💤 💙

#dogsofbluesky #seniorpupsaturday
A fluffy black dog is curled up asleep on a padded dog bed that has a brown and beige patchwork cover with a green towel on top. The dog’s head rests near white shelves, and his legs are relaxed to the side. The floor beneath is light wood, and part of a gray rug is visible in the upper corner.

Hi, friends! This old pup’s got a message: every sunrise brings a new chance to shine. What’s your spark this morning? ☀️🐾

Photo of an older black dog with soft, wavy fur and a gentle expression, sitting on a rug and looking up at the camera with soulful eyes. His mouth is slightly open in what looks like a calm, friendly smile. Light from the side highlights the texture of his fur, and blurred light shapes on the rug add a dreamy, peaceful atmosphere.

My paw is almost healed! Limping for so long made my back unhappy, but my person took me to a doggie physiotherapist and they gave me exercises that will help.

How I feel about the "no running" rule we still have while my foot heals: 😒

An older black dog with a fluffy coat and gray around his muzzle stands on grass, wearing a bandage wrapped in protective plastic on one front paw. He’s on a leash, looking off to the side with an alert but slightly unimpressed expression. The background features a wooden fence and bare shrubs, suggesting a chilly day.

Hi friends! My foot was hurting, so my person removed the bandage to check it. The surgical wound looks okay, but my paw and wrist are raw from the shaving and bandage. I'm feeling better, eating well, and taking sedatives to stay calm. Seeing the surgeon tomorrow—hopefully for stitches removal!

These days have been ruff. My tummy wasn't good, and I didn't even want to eat! But my person made me meals and fixed my meds with the vet. This morning, I ate a big breakfast and even felt like scampering! (But nooo, I wasn't allowed.) Oh, and the lump on my paw wasn't scary. ("Benign"?) Phew!

Today's the big day, friends—I'm off to the vet for my paw surgery. I'm feeling a little nervous and it's scary being away from home, but my person gave me lots of kisses and told me so many people love me and are rooting for me. Paws crossed for a successful procedure and smooth recovery! 🖤

My surgery got funded! Now they can try to fix my foot so I can keep running and playing and snuggling. Isn't that great? 🥳

Hi, I’m Bunter 🐾 I’ve been my person’s best friend for 13 years, but now I need help. A lump on my paw hurts to walk on, and I need surgery to fix it. This #GivingTuesday, can you donate or share? You could save my paw—and my life!

Thank you for caring! ❤️‍🩹

They say gray fur means wisdom. I say it means I’ve earned all the treats I want. #SeniorPupSaturday 🐾❤️

Hi! I’m Bunter, a 13-year-old golden retriever mix with the softest black fur. I’m gentle, a little shy, and full of love. I enjoy sniffing around, playing “find it” with my toys, and relaxing near my human. Stick around to share my adventures, happy moments, and all the ways I make life happier!
