Georgie is almost 10 months old. She just got out of heat so she was not getting her walks. She has this limp so I have to be careful for now with her walks. Only about 20 minutes at a time the vet said. She plays with our other dog Bobby and when Daisy comes over she does not stop all day! Their spots do get darker as they get older. I think their spots are charming!!!!!

I love the spots too!! i don't know if this is true or not, but i was told once that they have so many spots cause they were supposed to be brindle?? i don't know about that, but Memo does have a brindle ear LOL
Memo is 11 mths old now and 60lbs...he looks really good, but i honestly thought he was going to be much bigger bc he was really big as a pup, with the biggest paws you ever saw!! lol
I do recall Nikita was so lanky looking...and then close to a yr old starting to put on some extra weight.

Keep in mind the best raw food for a dog is low fat game animals - you know from the wild. Also, I think it's fine to see a bit of the last 3 ribs or so - when you rub them they should feel like a fit person's ribs. When you rub your hand softly along her spine, you should just barely feel the vertebrate.
