11/19/14. "I cant believe my favorite sweater still fits!"

Calvert has begun to lose his hair. Hand fuls of his hair fall out when I pet him. And from what ive read, that is a symptom of kidney failure. So, sweaters it is to make sure he stays warm! !

11/20/14. Calvert looked deep in thought about something. He has kind of a perplexed look. Ive noticed he might be kinda depressed. I want to kiss all his worries away. I want there to be such a thing as magic so he can magically be healthy. Although he's still not anywhere close to the end, I think today has been a rough day. And I think its ok to have an occasional bad day. C'mon Calvert, let's go to bed. Tomorrow's a new day.

Nighty night Calvert. Sweet dreams!

Remember, Calvert is NOT worrying about a thing! He doesn't give a rip about any ole'stupid diagnosis or statistics! Calvin does NOR have a time frame stamped on his butt!!

Actually, what you perceive as worry or depressed, may be Calvert thinkingnhow he can get that sweater off him! My Happy Hannah was not anhappy camper if I put any kind of clothes on her!.

Looking forward to next picture! Calvert is a miracle dog on so many levels!!!

Love!

Calvert is the picture of contentment with his buddy the dog sitter.  He looks so relaxed I want to curl up on a couch with him and snuggle.

And as Sally mentioned....Double pictures!!!  We love seeing Calvert everyday!
