The old man turned 18 and 6 months in September

Sorry just had to toot his horn!
I count everyday I wake up and Pugman is still breathing a blessing!
He is doing well and is still eating well and socializing and
still has all his faculties

At least if he is outside and I say "turn around" or "watch out"
he stops and does what is asked. So I guess that is a good sign!
