❇️ A Dog’s Life
How does a dog’s lifespan compare to a human’s? Simply multiply the dog’s age by seven and you can see what it equals in human years. During years one and two of a dog’s life, it is still a puppy. It acts like a baby, eats a lot, and has nonstop energy. It also must try things many times before it learns them, just like you. Years three to five are the young adult years. Dogs this age are usually confident, healthy, and strong. Age six to eight marks a dog’s middle-age years.
They still like to play, be trained, and go for walks but may like to relax a bit more, too. By this stage of life, a dog is happily part of your family. If your dog is nine or ten years old, then your pal is really a senior citizen. Senior dogs are sweet and not demanding. They may also have more health problems. Most dogs this age just like to be by your side and to be petted a lot.

❇️ Podcast 133 A Birthday Dilemma
♦️Exercises
Two guys were talking at work.
“I’ve got a problem,” said the first one.
“What is it?” said his friend.
“My wife has done it to me again. It’s my mother-in-law’s birthday tomorrow. I’m supposed to buy her a present. I am totally out of ideas. It isn’t fair. It’s her mother, not mine.”
“What did you buy her last year?” asked his friend.
“A very expensive cemetery plot.”
“It’s hard to top that one,” said his friend.
They couldn’t think of anything. So the son-in-law bought nothing. The mother-in-law was quite upset at her birthday party.
“Couldn’t you find anything for me?” she said.
The son-in-law had to say something.
“Well, you know what we got you last year? You haven’t even used it yet.”
