Happy Birthday Cooper!!!! Cooper is 11 years old Happy Birthday Cooper!!!!

Cooper is 11 years old today!! 

We are so grateful to have spent another year around the sun with him, and no signs of him slowing down (other than very minor hind end weakness). 

This time last year he underwent surgery to remove two lymph nodes and a regrowth of an adenocarcinoma. I remember sobbing on hikes with him because I thought we’d have only a few months left given the prognosis. 

Here we are, celebrating another year of morning naps in the sun or in front of the heat vent, hiking through the woods, trying to stay awake when begging for food or when in the car, and being the most easy going, up-for-anything dog. We love you Cooper!
