My little boy turns 2 today! Its so crazy to think how quickly his puppy hood has passed! Of course I think I love him more as an adult than I did when he was a crazy little puppy! This is a big mile stone for Franklin, when he was a puppy he was incredibly accident prone and in the vets office CONSTANTLY! After his first birthday he developed some health problems that caused him to overheat and collapse whenever he played. So last year was spent running thousands of dollars in blood tests, ultrasounds, x-rays, muscle biopsies, you name it. All came up with no answers. I have learned to manage his condition by never taking him anywhere where there isn't water nearby to dunk him in when he over heats. He too has learned to manage his condition by seeking out water to stand in when he starts to overheat (this usually only takes about 5 minutes of running). I moved to an apartment on the river so we are lucky to never have water more than a few steps away when we are out on our daily runs. It has been a very expensive, stressful, sad and trying year. Having been told by two specialists the only solution to is health problem was not to play....YEAH RIGHT! Anyway, together we have made it through, we have become closer than ever, and in my eyes my little boy is absolutely perfect! I wouldn't trade him for a million bucks or a healthy corgi! :-) So here's to you Franklin! Happy Birthday!!!!
