The girls and Dylan are taking things at a slower pace, wisely, and chilling out in the river a lot on walks.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t forget about Dylan&#8217;s birthday last month, but I didn&#8217;t blog about it. He was six on April 21st, which seems quite bizarre to me. I don&#8217;t remember when he grew up? Looking at his photos from earlier today I can see this amazing, mature, gorgeous dog and I think he&#8217;s pretty damn awesome. It&#8217;s strange, because he&#8217;s not the dog I thought he would be; it took me a long time to reconcile my expectations and ideas of what he should be, to seeing and accepting the dog he actually is. For all his neurotic, insecure, and fear-based quirks, he&#8217;s the kind of dog that was always in the books I read when I was younger. He is a Good Dog, it&#8217;s written right into his blood.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kayanem\/7261815492\/\" title=\"Dylan by kayanem, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7102\/7261815492_3b6c1c08ac.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" alt=\"Dylan\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>He also played with Diva this week, which is a fairly massive milestone in his life considering he&#8217;s seen her every week for the past 2 years and has spent most of that time trying to pretend she doesn&#8217;t exist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been too hot to walk the dogs during the day over the past week.
