Einstein's birthday was Sunday, or rather the real Albert Einstein's birthday was Sunday, so that's the day we picked for our Einstein's birthday since we don't know when it is.
When we got Einstein last year, the shelter thought he was seven. A vet estimated his age at four when I took him in for a pulled muscle in his leg over the summer. Then a couple weeks ago our vet said that judging by the advancement of tooth decay, Einstein was probably closer to seven than four. So long story short, we also have no idea if Einstein is five, eight, or somewhere in between.
We think he's toward the younger end of the span because he still LOVES to play, but he does get tired easily, so who knows. We love him no matter what age he is, especially considering part of my argument about why we should adopt Einstein in the first place was because as a senior dog, his chances of getting out of the shelter were slim.
How many of you have to guess how old your dogs are and decide when their birthdays are for them?
When we got Mollie we were told her birthday and we have just kept it...but mostly we celebrate her gotcha day. That day we brought her home.
