We're giving Wolfgang a party today, where his doggie friends will come by. Hopefully it's not a "Goodbye, Wolfgang" party (he's dome somewhat better this week) but we know that he's living on borrowed time.
And so his buddies are coming by to play and lie on the grass with him.
Every day is a gift. Seize the day.
Ask not ('tis forbidden knowledge), what our destined term of years,
Mine and yours; nor scan the tables of your Babylonish seers.
Far better to bear the future, my Leuconoe, like the past,
Whether God has many winters yet to give, or this our last;
This, that makes the Tyrrhene billows spend their strength against the shore.
Be wise, strain your wine. Life is short, should we hope for more?
Even now, envious time has fled.
Seize the day; put little faith in tomorrow.- Horace, Odes 1.11

No greater love friend than a dog to his human.
I was going to ask for an update, so thanks for this.

Good worK, BP!
Being around his buddies and people is all he needs at this point in life. I'd boot him in the head once in awhile with the odd bacon or a little eggs too. They will just glub them down without tasting them... but it's a great way to make them happy too.
You - you be happy too! He may surprise you in how much time he actually has left. Keep your corners square over there! It may not look or feel like it... but everything is going to be okay.
