Today Toby and I went to the woods to spread some acorns we had collected.
Remember this guy?
Look! It seems we have finally shamed someone into doing something!
The removal must have been within the past week because no one had cut the tall grass that had grown around the trunk.
Initially I thought someone had pushed the trunk into the woods like I had, but it had been hauled away.
I would have liked to have taken a picture of the part of the tree that remains in the woods to show how huge this fellow had been, but I am allergic to all of the plants that grew up around it. Maybe later when they die back I can return.
As you can see, Toby was his typically cooperative self.

Geordie didn’t go with us today. My little guy hasn’t been feeling all that well. I can see that the heat and humidity are getting to him, as is his arthritis. I am hoping that the cooler weather will help him to feel better, but I suspect his time with us is short. It has already been two years since his cancer diagnosis. He has exceeded everyone’s expectations, but I can see that he is tired.
Although it hurts thinking of my Geordie leaving, I find myself hoping that another pup will come along to play with Toby and me and brighten our days. Some say that once a pup crosses the Rainbow Bridge, he or she finds the perfect new companion for the earthly family. No one can replace you, Geordie, but if you meet someone who would have fun with us, please send them our way!

NOOOOO! We are BOT ready for Geordie to leave us. Please, little guy, rally!!!!
I’ll never be ready for Geordie to leave. Gpa brought him some CBD oil today, and it seems to be making him feel better. Paws crossed!
I got a case of the sads from your update on Mr. Geordie.
Aw, please don’t be sad Maxwell. I had had a very full life, and I am looking forward to retirement. Mom tells me time is non-linear of the other side, so we’ve always been together and always will be. (Let’s hope she’s not crazy!)
Geordie was Winkie’s role model when he was battling cancer. He’s waiting at the Bridge to say Thanks fur suggesting the Life Gold, which we do believe made him feel better. Hugs and licks from me and Hershey.
I think Life Gold is why Geordie has been with us so long. Even now, I don’t think it is the cancer bothering him but something else. He just started CBD oil today, and it seems to be relieving some of the pain.
Praying for Geordie. ((( hugs )))
Thank you : – )
That picture of Geordie touched my heart. May he stay with you as long as he needs to and transition peacefully over at the end.
Thank you : – )
Sorry to hear Geordie is ailing. My Sam turns 14 on Monday and while he’s pretty spry, his back end is a bit stiff with arthritis. We use some CBD to help especially when the weather turns cold. Extra ear scratches for your little guy.
Early Happy Birthday, Sam! I hope you have continues good health through the coming year.
Thanks. He’s pretty amazing considering he’s a big dog and an old one at that. He still walks over 2 miles a day. Make that strolls and sniffs but he’s done that since he was 2! BOL
