We think Walt is about 13 or 14 but not sure of his exact age.
The Humane Society told us he was about a year old when we got him but we are sure he was closer to 2 or 3 years old.
He is an old boy who gets puppy brain and runs around still like a pup then pays for it for a week afterwards.

That was his name when they got him several months ago and he actually did a lot better this past weekend.
He didn't bark or growl at me but when I walked in the house I completely ignored him and did not even look at him.
Good rule with any dog, especially a dominant one. Making eye contact tells him you're a follower, not a leader.

Within a few minutes he came over to where I was sitting and nudged my arm like "um, I do live here why did you ignore me" and I was able to give him 3 treats and pet his head.

Walter had another one of his "I forgot to keep breathing" episodes last night but we got him a "natural" supplement to help ease his joint pain.
The dose was 3 small chews which I gave him then I went to bed and sometime in the night he jumped up with me.
When I woke up about 2:30 am I went to pet him and he was not breathing.
It took about a dozen good hard shakes to get him back so no more of those chews for him and no more of any of that type of stuff for him.
