And a Very Old Man Was He.

Nixon is a very old man. He turned 11 this November.

He was born outside at -40c in the Yukon wilderness. We brought him home 11 Christmas's ago. He lived outside. Unless it was below -40c, then -35c, then -30c, then.... you get the idea.

About 15 months ago Nixon decided he wanted out of the dog house, and that he was now an inside dog.

He is an old man in every way. This picture is how he looks 90% of the time. That is followed by eating, and brief stints of thinking that he is still a puppy. He is grouchy like an old man too. He knows what he wants, and you will too.

BTW he is the consummate inside dog. I have no idea how that happened.
