Quarter Life Crisis

So as much as I hate to admit it I'm getting older. My 4th birthday is quickly approaching and I'm finding that I'm having a bit of a quarter-life crisis. Let’s start with the dreaded hair loss....My mom says it's no big deal since all dogs shed but it definitely seems like more than previous years. Someone also pointed out that I'm looking more white than yellow!!!! I'm definitely not as petite as I once was; I used to be able to eat anything and still stay slim but now every extra snack I eat goes straight to my thighs. I find myself having to take more naps than usual; when I was a puppy I could run around all day long and still have energy to spare. These days I'm out of commission after one measly playgroup with my pack! In order to keep my youthful stamina I am determined to defy the aging process. I located some yellow paint downstairs that will most certainly rejuvenate my fur color. I'm also putting in a request with my mom to recruit some senior citizen dogs for playgroups; at least being surrounded by old folks will make me feel younger and better about myself. Finally much as I hate to do it I'm going to embrace my extra naps and enforce an early bedtime in attempt to keep up with my old play schedule. It's a well known fact that labs don't REALLY slow down well until their 8th year; this plan is guaranteed to work! If not I guess I'll be forced to retire and lay by the pool all day...getting old is ruff!!
