Jagger is 8. We rescued him from an unhappy situation at about age 3. So, he's had an amazing 5 years hiking, xc skiiing, snowshoeing, fishing, riding with horses and bikes. He is/was such an athletic and coordinated dog, it's sad and hard to see his world narrow. We live on acreage and he's always ranged around here. He is sticking much closer.

Yeah, I'm trialing some new verbal commands with him, like "be careful," when he's about to run into a bush or stob. 😢
