Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
She looks great to me. I've lived with dogs all my life and while they are a joy as adolescents, I like them better in the puppy stage and best of all by far when they are older. It's when they need you the most, and most dog people I know are happy to oblige. My opinion anyway...My black Lab dog-daughter, Emily Ann. She is 14.5 years old and in very bad shape. Still wags her tail and eats but has to have chicken broth added to her water so she'll drink.
She has about 20-25 fatty tumors just under her skin. We had a few taken off but they are apparently harmless. Retriever dogs are prone to them.
Dawg, I hope your dog lives forever.
