He still plays with the "pup" and runs in the yard. He still likes his chest rubbed. He still holds a special place in my heart, and always makes me feel better.
Lately, he's been spending more time in the crate (voluntarily!!) than typical. He's also jumping on the bed a little less. But he still loves going on a run with mom!
I remind him as often as possible that he has definitely not been replaced - - and will never be replaced by anything with legs!
Today: I am thankful that my Kobe is still in relatively good health!
