Today is my birthday, I`m 10 years old now.
Dog friends: tell your humans it`s Joops birthday,
and if you`re lucky you`ll get a birthday cookie in my name
(thanks humans for helping me out here!)

Ten years make me a senior dog. Senior, not old. But I`ve decided to take it easier.
My human has new projects coming up that he needs to focus on.
Presenting a picture-a-day Dog Log, like we`ve done since June of last year,
takes time and attention and a lot of posing (but you all know that).
Everything that begins will have to end someday.
I`ve shown you most of what I am and much of what I believe in.
So here it is: today is the final issue of my dayly dog log.
I`ll still post new photo`s but not every day, more like once a week maybe, I`m not sure yet.

Thank you all for your visits and stimulating comments!
It`s been a nice addiction. You are truely wonderful friends.
Round of paws from Joop, and big licks for the ladies and misses.
