Pet Adoption

I have a silver boxer. It is Varvara. She is 10 years old and shi is gray-haired. But we don’t want to call her gray-haired, we call her “silver” girl. The old dog always caused in me special feelings. The dog, who has given all life to me, is worth the biggest attention. Her sight is not so good. She has problems with hearing. Metabolism is not in the best form too. Some dogs grow thin strongly and lose appetite. Varvara has gone another way. She began to increase the weight. Now the main task for Varvara - to eat something once again. If she will notice, that somebody has gone on kitchen, she runs after him. At this time she looks as a dog that is ready to fall in a hungry faint. We especially for this purpose have prepared crackers. Usual dietary bread cut slices and dried it up. And now, when Varvara looks at us especially hungry eyes, she receives a cracker. I have never had such soft and chubby dog. Thus Varvara tries to be always near to me. It seems to me, that thus she tries to provide to herself guarantees, that if she will have a problem, she will be helped to solve it. She does not feel ready to solve all the problems any more. Now she allows caring of herself. She accepts any care. She was very independent dog before. She behaved as the puppy only with the owner. She played any games. Overturned on a back, allowing the owner to scratch her stomach. Jumped with joy at a meeting of the owner. For all others she showed faultless manners of behaviour of the lady. And now it is simple very kind house dog. She actively searches for contact to any person. Willingly accepts the help from any person. I understand that events develop correct by. That any organism all over again is born, develops and after dies away. It is correct. But for me sadly to see, that the peak of blossoming for Varvara has already passed.
