It's so awesome to see healthy weight bullies! Especially older ones. So many people turn them into barrels on stumps and it's sad, seeing as how athletic they are naturally.

Yesterday Jazz had a play date with a 12 month old Kelpie x boy. He actually ended up outlasting Jazzies energy!
Jazz is saying "Enough Already" Barney is still go, go, go!
She impressed me with her ability to stop play without any aggression. A look, a bit of a grunt, and then she just stuck her nose straight up in the air and refused to engage.

She’s gained a little weight since then, but she’s still in pretty good shape for her age. She has that typical bulldog tenacity, even if she shouldn’t she’s gonna keep going til she can’t. It’s a little sad she can’t hear me even if I’m yelling from fifteen feet away, I’ve resorted to jumping around trying to visually attract her attention lol. When she notices she’s just like “huh, who me? Ok I’m comin..” lol
Went on a little hike yesterday, most of it in circles around the campground looking for the trailhead. Never found it by the way, and also forgot my leashes and had to drive all the way back out!!
You can see her in her own world down the trail, oblivious, while the boys are coming to my call.

Java is having similar hearing problems at almost 12. Its tough because before with hearing, she was very quick and you needed to get her focused before she went off and did something her way. Now shes still got the same motto but less hearing, oh boy, lol. Have you thought about using the vibrate function on an ecollar to get her attention?

Exactly what I was going to suggest! I love love love the vibrate feature.

I haven’t, but that’s a good idea! My boyfriend suggested getting her a hearing aid lol. Seriously though he’s been big into hunting lately and they have a thing that goes in your ear to enhance your hearing. I haven’t seen it so not sure how well it would work, if it would work for a dog but he seems to think it would.
I got a little creative in work this morning. It’s so the children can come in to the Post Office with their Santa letters and post them in their own mail box

I teach them hand signals along with a verbal command starting when they're pups and it is very helpful when their hearing starts going. Of course they have to be facing you for it to work but it's just a habit I've gotten into. Of course I automatically use those hand signals on people coming through the checkpoint too but that's probably not the worst thing when some don't speak English. LOL
That’s what my hubs said about his ex wife.
She was an aerobics instructor and now she looks like a fire plug.

I can't believe it! Bought home a new stuffie to put on Jazzies flirt pole. She is great at disemboweling her stuffed toys and a moving one even better! As I unpacked the shopping bag she noticed it. She used all her powers of persuasion, looking deep into my eyes while sitting nicely, (wriggly bum sit!), a glance at the toy and back to my eyes. I caved, and gave it to her thinking there would be a snow storm in about 3 minutes. She took it to her bed, mouthed it all over, found it had a squeaker and squeaked it a bit, and then this....................! 
He is just the cutest critter. Look at his ET fingers.
His eyes are the color of Topaz.

Yes, that mud stinks to high heaven when it is stirred up but after the dogs come out of it and shake off they don’t stink, thank goodness!
