Grand Old Peter
Peter is now the grand old man of
Clybucca at seventeen and a half years of age. The eyes are dim
and he is stone deaf but the old dog still manages to toddle around
and he still enjoys his food. I fenced off the house to give him
an enclosed space so that he doesn't wander but when he is unattended
he goes into his pen. It has his kennel and food and it is safe
for him to bumble around.
The fence also provides a grazing
area around the house for Shelley and it stops her trying to play
with Peter. Peter wanders around the house yard when I am at home.
His pen is alongside the verandah so I can easily keep an eye
on him.
