Healthy Kate

We went to the vet first thing this morning for Kate's annual checkup and rabies shot.

The old gal is in good shape, so the vet said.

And since Kate is over 13 years old, the vet recommended that we skip the teeth cleaning.

That means I can spend my economic stimulus check on something else — like gas for the car and my credit cards.

Nevertheless, I went to the pet store and bought a doggie toothbrush and toothpaste.

We already had one session, which Kate tolerated.

I'll be better about it this time.

Really.

Assuming 10.5 dog years per human year for the first 2 years, then 4 dog years per human year for each year after, that would make Kate about 65 if she were a woman.

Must say, she has aged quite gracefully, no doubt due to much TLC.

Was this photo taken before or after the toothbrushing episode?

Thanks. The photo was taken before the toothbrushing.

That's why she's not smiling.
