Fatty Flattie

snoopsmom · 09-30-2011, 08:57 PM

Here is a pic of my "Fatty Flattie". Tiggy is 14 years old and gets plenty of treats and rest. I know it is not good for dogs to be overweight (just like people!), but at age 14 she can have whatever she wants!

Yep Tiggy...when you reach the age of retirement you can whatever you want whenever you want

Especially when you are THAT cute!

Awww. She looks so sweet. My boy Spencer went to the Bridge at age 14. I love their senior years. Her white little face reminds me of him.

although you know at daphneyland.com the basset daphney is 17! and the adopted out a basset who was 18!!! so she may have a while yet!

She's so sweet looking! Virga lays like that too and always makes people laugh when she does. I wonder if it's a female thing. Doppler never lays like that. And I agree...at 14 she can have whatever she wants. Here's to many more Tiggy! ?Love the name btw.

What a pretty girl! And Boomer will lie like that, too.

Now that Lightning is in his advanced years (I can't believe he's old!), he doesn't lay like that anymore. I miss it. And Miss Tiggy isn't fat! That last picture of her isn't taken from the most flattering angle, I must say, but she looks very healthy and happy.

There is something so very special about an older dog. While the younger ones are more of a challenge and demanding, the older ones seem so gentle and happy with anything that you do for them. We people need to learn a lesson from them.

Tiggy you are simply BEAUTIFUL and not fat at all -- you are a mature full-figured basset-lady..... and just PERFECT!!!
