I kept blaming it on that and after a very long day yesterday in the lakes he's pretty stiff today. Like Charlie he's had some epic runnign adventures but I fear the long days out will have to end all too soon :-(<br /><br />big pats for Charlie :-)Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16246779571232063571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133626361639419133.post-82061251638559848492010-02-14T19:43:14.104+00:002010-02-14T19:43:14.104+00:00Sad as it is, I think you're probably right ab...Sad as it is, I think you're probably right about the C2C.

I am sorry to hear about Charlie ...Hi Ultra Collie,<br />I am sorry to hear about Charlie and his stiffness after runs. I am sure he loves running with you as much as you love having him by your side. I will keep my fingers crossed for you and Charlie:) How old is he? Toby lived to be seventeen years old and he was the same way...just wanting to keep up with me:) That is a fantastic pictures, I love it!! Thank you:) Tell Charlie that I said to hang in there;)Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01016242849142019105noreply@blogger.com
