Your dog has ten years. Maybe twelve.
Those years are made of small things. Most weeks hold one that could end in an emergency room.
- A grass seed in his paw. It cannot back out, and some reach a lung.
- His nails clicking on the kitchen floor. That length strains the tendons.
- The peanut butter you hide his pill in. Birch sugar on the label can mean seizures.
- The stick you throw. Landed upright, it goes through the back of the throat.
- The tennis ball in your pocket. For a dog his size it blocks the airway.
90 Small Habits That Help Your Dog Live Longer
One answer for every one of them. Ten years of them, written down at last, one page each.
- After the walk. Two minutes on his paws and ears, and nothing gets in.
- His feet. The length I keep his nails at, and the clicking stops.
- Labels. The one word I look for, and the jar I threw out.
- Fetch. What I throw instead, and the game stops being a risk.
- The ball. The size I buy now, and it cannot go down.
- And 85 more, one page each, across the nine sections.
The nine sections
- What comes home with him. Seeds, ticks and salt, and the two minutes that find them.
- His feet and nails. The length that stops the clicking, and what it spares him.
- What goes in him. The words on a label that mean poison.
- Play. Sticks, balls, launchers, and what makes each one safe.
- The house. The floors, stairs and plants behind most falls.
- His weight. The check with my hands that the scale never showed me.
- Teeth and breath. One night a week, and what it saves him from.
- Getting older. The slow changes I write down, so I catch them early.
- The vet. The list I bring in, so nothing gets forgotten.
Ten years goes fast. Make it fifteen.
