Even before the incident in December, Mara and Moby had stuck close to Setzer. They still do.
"When I lie down, they like to get as close to me as possible," he said. "Mara likes to get up on the pillow and lay next to my head. Moby likes to lie down full-length beside me."
is bad, just try living with my 85 lb. Black Lab/Pit cross. He doesn't just believe in sleeping close to me; he tries to push me out of bed every nignt. Will no one help me???
My 13 year old Rottie, Candy, is really starting to show her age. She doesn't walk well any more, and does little more than sleep all day. She still shows some feistiness, and still vigorously enforces the ‘Hands Are For Petting Dogs’ rule when she's not sleeping.
Over the past few months, she has developed a bladder control problem....sometimes she will just leak all over the floor, and not know it. It doesn't happen much, and maybe it is just urinary tract infections now and again.
But now she has started having the same issue with bowel movements. Twice now it seems she had the urge to go and got up to go outside, only to leave a trail along the floor going out the door. I don't know if she is just too uncomfortable to get up and just waits until it's too late, or she just doesn't realize how bad she has to go.
Either way, my wife and I think that her time may be short. I would hate to let her go before her time, however. I am asking for opinions on what I should do. Maybe there is some medication for this condition??? (fingers crossed)
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
