Senior Dogs 🐶 Habitual Behavior Problems
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2018
- Do you have a senior dog? 👉 If you are fortunate to have a dog stay with your family into their old age, then you will know just how tranquil, kind and affectionate they can be. However, there are certain health risks which do raise concern as dogs age. Canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) is a brain affecting disease which has a similar effect to Alzheimer's disease in humans. It is possible for its progress to be slowed if detected early enough. This is why preventative measures are so important. In this AnimalWised video we discuss caring for older dogs, particularly in how health and behavioral problems can manifest themselves. If you want to know more, take a look at our original article here: www.animalwised.com/behaviora...

My ol' pooch is 17 and will be 18 very soon - tbh I think he's faking it cause he's only old and lazy when it suits him, then when there's food he's back to being a puppy 😂😂
L.J Turner haha
L.J Turner hows he doing?
Lucky you
How is he doing
@Demarcus Hairline shut up
Our 14 yr old black lab mix passed 8-13-18. Miss our old girl terribly. She had a wonderful life & was such a beautiful sweet spirit. Rescued her at 3 months from a horrible beginning
So sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry. May she rest is peace
I'm sorry for your loss.
God bless you and your dog's soul brother
Our dogs will be 17 in October. Our favorite activities are eating, barking at leaves, laying in the sun and sleeping. When dogs are old don't sweat the small stuff.
Appreciate Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your opinion. Have you ever tried - Nonadison Ageing Abscissa (do a search on google)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for caring for your ageing dog minus the hard work. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my close friend Aubrey got cool success with it.
Thanks for the Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you thought about - Nonadison Ageing Abscissa (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a great one of a kind guide for caring for your ageing dog minus the normal expense. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my cooworker at very last got astronomical results with it.
You eat, bark at leaves and sleep in the sun with them, huh? 😆
@@janicem9225 Not anymore. Sadly, they both crossed the rainbow bridge. But, yeah. I used to do what I could to make their lives happy.

Awww.
That's actually so very sweet. 😊
My little fur daughter ( Jack Russell and Chihuahua mix) is sitting beside me right now.
She's 12 and a half now, and starting to get a little bit of canine dementia and arthritis, so I'm going to make the rest of her life the best it can be, just as I've done throughout her life.
I have my jack Russell he is 18 years old. Still likes his daily walk. Well slow
He is still a loving dog.
Jack Russell's are awesome!
I got two and they are 13 years!
Mine is 10 and I am really afraid of losing her 😭. Thanks to this video I know how to deal with her.
Start feeding them real food if you're not, like eggs, pumpkin puree 100%, no salt no sugar peanut butter,
Keep mind active, chew toy etc
Thank you
Same issue
Me too. My heart hurts. She starting to have issues getting up and doing stairs. She lays around a lot now. Not eating as much. But during the day she’s fairly happy. But slow. And it’s horrible how we humanize that hopeless look in their eyes. I’ve been trying high quality CBD to help with her arthritis. Only been a couple weeks now but they said give it time to really help. I think it helps to get all the crying out the way first before that terrible day happens to cleanse the soul. Then you can think more clearly.
@@NuNuRokd it's pretty common for older dogs to lay around more as they get older, if your doggo is skipping meals then try to feed him/her some of your food, that usually wakes the pupper up :)
15 yr old Jack/Peke loves her daily strolls. A little walking to sniff (mostly blind and deaf) but a lot of buggy riding. I bought a dog buggy on Amazon for her. Best thing I ever did for both of us. Of course, people think I'm nuts but I don't care. She's my best friend.
Love your best friend every day 🤗💖my beloved dog was 17, letting her go, because I loved her was one of the hardest things I've ever done. Treasure them. Xxx
My dog is 14 and barks for nothing, he won’t let me out of his sight, I give him all my time.
Thank you for this video! With 2 dogs over 14, and a 16 year old cat, I feel like I am running a nursing home for elderly animals. I spend more on their medications than I do for my own now. The information in this video although tough to hear was helpful.
My dog was adopted at 8, and now I have a soft spot for oldies.
Ahh. I needed this video badly. My 12 year old dog (Dutch Shepherd) is really old now and I didn’t really understand some of his symptoms. Its noticeable that combined with the last time he was attacked by another dog combined with his weaker state he was became very aggressive in a defensive way. He is scared of some dogs that he never was scared of before and he immediately bulks up at the sight of a dog coming at him.
Thanks for the video, great help as always!
Sitting here with my 17yo Rescue. Had him since he was 5… The past two days have not been great… the Red-Lines that I said I would acknowledge have shown themselves. Thanks for making this video.
You made me choke up at the end there. They do us need us more than ever. Def best friend
I have a small dog that's 17 years old. It's sadly humbling to realize what is in my control and what isn't. Our daily walks are slow as she trails behind me and I've noticed her movements becoming progressively more stiff and slower. I found that supplementing a capsule of Borage (cold pressed) oil into her wet food every 2nd/3rd day has helped a lot with her arthritis and has given her increased mobility. Borage oil contains Linoleic acid (LA) and Gamma-Linoleic acid (GLA) which are Omega-6 essential fatty acids with powerful anti-inflammatory properties. I hope somebody finds this information helpful.
whats more helpful is painkiller. my dog has to be carried up and down the steep stairs for 2 years. then she injured her neck (unrelated). on the painkillers for that, she became able to do the stairs again by herself so we kept her on that after her neck was better. she was able to do the stairs for 2 more years. now im back to carrying her but it would have been cruel of me to only give herbal supplements when there are real drugs that have a much stronger effect.
@@M_SC what painkillers worked for your dog? My dog has recently stopped going up the stairs as well. The borage oil worked for a while but her age is catching up.
Thank you for sharing this. God bless your baby
@@LoneWolf-yp9qw as an update, I have now switched to CBD oil for dogs. This is the one that has been working for me www.petfood.express/products/pet-releaf-organic-full-spectrum-hemp-oil-100mg-for-small-dogs-cats.html
Update: had to have my dog put down today. Truly heartbreaking.
His cough / yack was very frequent and over the course of 3-4 days he got worse and worse. His demeanour changed and a once cheerful lab then stopped wagging his tail and appeared to be down. Eventually he refused to move or eat. Trying to coax him with his lead just made him anxious and go into a cough / yack fit. We then decided to end his pain (obvs much to our discomfort).
I tell you, watching your best pal who you had a strong bond with, who was always happy and playful, quickly slip away to lifelessness was truly heartbreaking. At the end of the day, it was the right thing to do to end his suffering.
Thoughts are with you. He was lucky to have you there caring for him till the end. I have a 13 year old girl who is slowing down and changing all the time. She gets heaped with love, and I dread the day....
G Glydie thank you, I took great comfort knowing that he was at peace. I hope your old girl is well, best wishes.
Caring for special needs dogs and senior dogs is a blessing for pet parents. But the toughest part is parting away. God bless all the babies, volunteers and pet parents
A girl at work brought her 11 year old lab mix in. What a sweetheart he is!!! Elderly animals are awesome.
I got a mixed breed chihuahua now 14 years old. Trouble walking but on prosense. He got a stroller. We go to park. I watch him and when he can not walk he goes in his stroller. I watch him all the time outside.
My dog is 14 almost 15 years old. He doesn't enjoy walks as much anymore but a nice long car ride seems to keep him calm. One thing that hasn't changed is the early am frosty boop when he needs to go out and potty.😃
My dog is 12 and I can tell that she has slowed down in the last year, but she is still alert and healthy. She just gets more precious as she gets older.
My nine year old terrier mix loves playing with his 15 year old pitbull neighbor. So many of my family’s dogs have lived well into their teens - keep them healthy, love them and cherish everyday.
My old bulldog is 13 and the last couple months has been attacking his little sister out of nowhere. He has never been aggressive or even shown one tiny bit of this before now. Indifference was his main emotion his entire life. It is breaking my heart to see him run at her from nowhere because I know it’s not him.
Ah, you guys do such a good job on your videos. I also think, not Necessarily pertaining to old dogs but, a dog on a leash makes it vulnerable to other dogs, I’ve noticed. At the dog park, once I walk in with a dog in my arms or on a leash, the other dogs try to lunge. Once the dog is on the ground and off the leash, everything becomes fine.
I have a cute tiny chihua and she doesnt do much like she use to she doesnt know where shes going and her eye color have changed I had her since she was tiny baby we all love her so much shes been by my side since the beginning i know at some point her time will come its gonna break my heart so much she was my first baby my first dog she has bought joy and happiness into my life now its my turn to take care of her i alway pet her talk to her she walks a little cause she gets out of breath what i love about seniors dogs they are so cute as they age wouldnt love them they been our best friends and family i love her so much 💖💖💖💖😚
Because of family circumstances we had to bring one of our grand-dogs back home after living 14 years with son. Still the same sweet pup. Does not see, hear, or walk as well but still gives as much love and joy as when younger. Thanks for your tips. We expect to love her the rest of her life. D.H.
Awh my American Eskimo is turning 17 this month.. but he's really having trouble moving around now :( he's still eating and drinking water but today especially he hasn't been able to stand and walk. It is what it is, I love him so much 😥
These are Beautiful old dogs.
I've got a yellow mut who even at 15 years old is as strong as a year old, however his mind has changed greatly. He's become more keen to allow strangers close as well as being friendlier w other dogs, but he also requires a much higher maintenance, specially when it comes to company. As an adult he wasn't very big on being held too long or staying sat next to people, prefering to play on his own or rummage the backyard. Nowadays even after six or more hours of sitting right beside me and being pet at every chance, he'll stay up howling for an hour or two if he's not rocked to sleep. It's kind of heartbreaking seeing the amount of anxiety he feels and can only keep at bay when someone's with him. I wish I could always be there every minute with him without fail to spare him the anguish.
Cherish and take advantage of when your dogs can take care of themselves, because when the day comes and they entirely depend on you, any moment that you can't be there will mortify them and break your heart.
😍😥 my heart goes out to you and your pup; our doggie is in the same boat
Thank you for the validation of my dogs behaviors. She's a 13yr old Australian Cattle Dog who has been my seizure alert and response dog since she was 6yrs old. Before her service training, we were a competitive herding and agility team. She's now suffering with cataracts, arthritis and extensive food allergies, her lab panels all come back within normal ranges for her age and condition.
Her behaviors have changed dramatically in the past year, she's started excessive barking at noises, charging and barking at strangers, not listening to commands or refusing to behave as expected, or trained, and the inability to negotiate going up stairs. The lunging at others and barking are the most disturbing behaviors as they are aggressive. I understand where the behaviors are coming from, my question is if there is an effective way to remedy the aggressive behaviors at this age and stage of her life?
I love her dearly and miss the independence her abilities provided me. I need to start training a new dog but I do not want to split my time with another dog when she needs me now. I would appreciate any remedial suggestions or ideas.
Thank you.
Such a nice educational video! My senior dog has indeed developed a sudden food agression by the age of 10 ...bit her owner for the 1st time over a peace of food...despite being very well trained, even to normally spit out any food by command...not anymore lol. The video helped us with reassurance that some times things change and the need is not for more discipline and training, but more tolerance and affection. We are revising the dog's pain meds and food intake to see if its causing this sudden serious behaviour change. Thank you for one more good video.
I can identify with your situation. My dog patch is 13 and has a cataract in one eye recently. He’s become aggressive this year too. It’s always in the evening when I have low light on from a lamp. I’ve tried moving the lamp incase shadows were upsetting him but it’s whenever I move about si it’s getting too much. I’m going to ask the beg to refer me to an animal behaviourist. It scares me sometimes and it’s stressful for both of us. Sometimes he wakes mid sleep on the attack. This is hard so I do hope I can find a way to ease this issue and give us both some relief. Wishing you all the best too.
My nephew had a female Rottweiler that was the sweetest dog until she got up in years. Chy was quite old for a Rottweiler, with a lot more white/grey spots than any other dog of any breed which was most prominent on her shoulder and " elbow " joints. As she aged, not only did her appearance, but her demeanor changed. Once a friendly dog, she was now very protective of her family, growling if any strangers moved even remotely threateningly or raised their voices. My sister still made sure she got at least adequate exercise and nutrition, but another symptom of advancing age was that Chy would eat...then minutes later vomit her food. She became extremely sensitive to her diet.
My lab has started to become restless at night and wakes me up by barking / nudging. He doesn’t need food or drink or to go to the toilet. He has started to ruin my sleep with his needy barking. I’m remaining patient with him
He prob just wants attention. Keep him in ur bedroom if he doesnt have fleas and thicks.
DyingStar 117 unfortunately he passed away on 9th Jan 2019, we had to have him put down. His heart condition worsened and he refused to eat (never ever refused food), stopped wagging his tail and refused to get up. We knew it was his time and we wanted to let him sleep with dignity. During the injection, he was looking at me directly in the eyes as I stroked him and told him that he was a good boy. As he faded, he slowly leaned backwards and nuzzled into my dads arm and softly passed away. Many tears were shed then but not anymore, because I can’t help but smile when I think of him!
yourface damn you made me cry
Queen Bae sorry!
Okay, thank you for the caveat that the "senior dog" category depends on a number of factors. My wife and I have a Bichon Frise mix rthat we rescued over 6 years ago. He was estimated to be at least 2-3 years old when we got him, so he's *at least* 7.5 years old today. Our vet esitmates he has 8-10 good years left in him, based on his health so far. This dog is just as fit, energetic and intelligent as he was when we first adopted him. I grew up with pure-bred labs. They both had to be put down due to debilitating hip dysplasia at age 10. I don't think I can bring myself to get another purebred or another large breed dog again. They tend to end up with so many problems and watching the pain they go through towards the end is just so heartbreaking. Mutts are the way to go, IMO. My aunt rescued a mutt puppy *years* ago. This dog was a mix of God knows how many breeds. She wasn't a small dog, either. She was about 70 lbs in her prime. That damn dog lived to be 22 YEARS OLD, and was in perfect health up until about age 19.
My babies are 9 and 10, they're bothers and I love them to the moon and back. Hopefully they'll stick with me for a few more years but their age is showing. They've never been sick, ever and they are the sweetest things. They are schnauzers and they will be my last dogs. Thank you for this video as it gives me more insight on how to make them feel more comfortable in their old age although I still see them as puppies like the day they were born.😊
Our 13 year old border collie x kelpie girl is an ageing treasure. In the last few months we've noticed she can't hear us, I think her hearing is almost completely gone. She now sleeps so deeply she doesn't know we are there until we pat her, even then, sometimes we are patting her gently and she keeps sleeping then wakes, surprised to find us so close 'all of a sudden'. Last year we lost her friend, our 10 year old boy dog to cancer, he never got the chance to get truly old, it's so unfair. So now we have a 6 month old puppy who has livened up our household, and keeps our old girl active. She's very protective over the little poppet, and even has the occasional zoomie around the house and yard, much to puppy's delight. Only once every few weeks though. We love our old girl so much it hurts.
My chihuahua is 18 years old 🥺♥️
They need more ❤ when getting older
We have a 165lb great Pyrenees and Antolian Shepard mix... he recently started senile barking... Due to nerve damage from being fixed years ago his back legs have never worked the best... We have to lift and put him in a standing position for him to walk. He struggles to get up... He is the best dog we have ever had! I'm scared how much longer we will have him though as he breathes differently now. Very loud and deep. He did get aggressive to our nephews dog but he is fine with other dogs we have had a long time too.
They are our best friends and blessings from God. We are their parents, and they are worthy of 110% of our love, care, time, and affection. We treat our baby boy like a human, and he is the absolute love of our lives. It’s our jobs and our responsibility to provide for them to the nth degree.
Got my buddy Geo at a shelter 8 years go, We figure he's 11 now. He pees and poops in the house now no matter what time I let him out midnight and no matter how early i wake up, he still manages to surprise me. I love him because he's been my bestfriend since I was in 5th grade now im 20 and i fear his health declining any faster. happy thoughts..
I'm a dog person, always have been. Dogs love me!? But my 16 year old dog has recently been displaying aggressive behavior when I try to pick her up. She tries to bite me and she growls and barks. I have of course takin her to the vet to discuss this. The first thing I thought was she could be in pain and with her long list of health issues she does obviously experience discomfort and I have a pain medication regiment that we're on and I am extremely attentive and aware of when her next dose will be needed. I read that older dogs who lose vision or hearing can understandably feel confused and frightened and this can cause that type of aggressive behavior as well. One of her ailments is glaucoma and she has gone completely blind in one eye and I've noticed that her hearing is also diminishing as well as her cognitive functions. She has a new neurologist, she has an oncologist, ( she has a slow-moving isolated cancer tumor in her liver that has not spread and we recently had an ultrasound and x-rays so it appears it's still isolated and we've got her on Palladia hopefully that will help I think she's too old for abdominal surgery I don't want to put her through that and the Palladia seems to be tolerated just fine) she also has an opthamologist and a cardiologist we do regular blood tests I'm on top of everything. We go outside every day several times a day and for years now I've been pushing her in a stroller taking her with me when I exercise. I've done this so much that I now have bursitis in my knee and my hip, she is definitely not sitting home alone in the dark. But I can't help but be upset when she tries to bite me and barks and growls. And I don't think it's like with a younger dog if she does that I say NO and then she doesn't get a buggy ride and then over time she'll put two and two together but I think she can't help it and it's more cognitive, *even before I lift her or put any pressure on her joints* or anything she starts in with the growling and trying to bite me. I've always been very gentle and kind with her. I don't know what to do. I guess I need to just toughen up and realize she's just going a little senile with her age and all. I guess she feels threatened when I go to pick her up? but why would she feel threatened by me? 💔😢 She let the neighbor pick her up the other day and when the neighbor went to hand her back to me she started in with the sas again. I don't know what to do. 😢 That's her in the picture with me by the way, my Sassy Senior Suki. Help! 😰 Please. 😢
😅i have a Wilshire terrier 13 years old she is now blind and lising her mind she barks any time there's a shadow and bars at the wall I'm pretty sad cause i know it's time to say goodbye to my lovely baby, it's pretty sad but this is how life.. we gave no choice , be strong and say goodbye and they won't be suffering any more..
My dog is a mix between, a chow chow, Australian Shepard, Swiss white shepherd, pitbull, boxer, husky, and sheltie and she just turned 11, she has never really been all that affectionate, unlike our younger dog who is a German Shepard Australian Shepard mix, but she still loves walks and playing with our younger dog, my older dog acts more like a cat when it comes to being affectionate. She wants affection but acts like she doesn’t, she’s really really sweet and still very active and can jump into our car trunk without issue still. She still loves to run and play and we often take her out to this patch of land we own so she can run and swim in the creek!
Thanks for this info
senior dogs are the best
I rescued her mom (Texas) at 2 months ... monkey was born 5 years later in 2008 March 23 ..ON MY BED .. ha ha ha... she still sleeps with me 15 years on
Mine is 15 ... she has become clingy .. so I take her everywhere with me ... she never used to be so clingy .. in fact she preferred staying home when she was younger .. gives her the opportunity to wreck the house.. hya ha ha... but after her mom died (she was 9 when her mom died at 16 ... since then she has become clingy .. Its not easy, but I guess we owe our dogs the same dedication and loyalty they give us .. and this matter now (because they are old) more than ever... I know her 'time is coming' so I have just decided to give her my best just like how she dedicated her entire life to my happiness...
Educating video, thx
My girl Gracie (Maltese) will be turning 17 this July 27, 2024. Last year I started seeing strange signs in her walking (it didn’t happen all the time) and now she’s her backside is rocking back and forth while sleeping and she shivers at times for no reason. Has anyone one else experienced this with their senior pup?
Yes. Right now. 😢 How is your dog? Mine shakes & pants all day. He barely eats or sleeps without gabapentin & trazadone. We have tried to let the meds work but over the weekend he has been walking on me back & forth, bruises all over me & claw/paw marks from him feeling so afraid. 😢 Him & I are both getting 2 to 3 hours of sleep every night. He looks at the door constantly waiting for my husband or will walk the halls of the house day to night like he doesn't know what he is doing. The vet told us a month ago it's separation anxiety & we keep asking for help. I think he is near passing away. He's scared and rather than going and hiding like other dogs do at the end of life he tries to literally crawl into me. I don't know how I'm gonna say goodbye. He is physically healthy & has good days but this weekend & start to the week has been the worst yet.
All the best to you. ♥️🫂
Old pets have so much love to give, but it's important to know how
to handle them in their senior age:

My senior dog is about 15 years old, I noticed behavior changes. She poops slot of diarrhea and urinates a lot more even in the car. She tends to stand in one place for periods of time and stare at nothing, she doesn’t eat much, she’s lost a lot of weight, she drinks lots of water and she has cataracts. Every time I take her out in public for walks, everyone assumes she is neglected as if she doesn’t eat but in reality she always has food available and water. I’ve given her strongid dewormer but I’m not sure if she has others or suffering from any other health conditions. I need to see a vet again
My chihuahua is 10 years old and is losing her hearing so she gets confused sometimes
My dog is 10 and she's a black lab mixed with a German shepherd
My dog name Ladybug. She’s 10 years old. Half German Shepard half boxer
Also, I keep battery operated lights in the room. So she doesn’t come into a dark room.
I keep her bed n pillows neatly arranged☀️
And I have fans in the room to assist with air circulation for her comfort.
Depends on weather if it ac/ heat/ . The fans are near her to comfort her.
Pillows, xtra blankets. Pillow covers.
... she’s a good dog. ... she wants to live... so she is here. Til Jesus takes her home. ... quench not the Holy Spirit. ... Jesus loves you!
my lovely boxer Bruce will be 13 in December we just do what he wants now. no more walks he likes to circle the garden.and likes the biggest cushions in his bed for his joints still loving his dinners and those pigs ears. My lovely old man will let me know when it's time. But we are old together won't have another it would be selfish of me . But i can babysit my sons dog that will have to be enough.
He’s afraid to come in the house as if he doesn’t recognize it as his. So he wants to be outside more. He also has to be coaxed into eating. He will eat, but he acts like he’s not supposed to eat the food in his bowl. Once he’s assured it’s ok, he’ll eat fine.
My dog name is kitty and she will be turning 13 this year ❤
My dog is 13 and just recently won't jump into the car to go to the park. I know she is losing her eye sight so it makes sense. But the one behavior I can't seem to find an answer to is this..when I take her too the park we walk all around and then goto the off leash around for a bit..when I see she has has enough( bad hip) I stop her and leash her up to go back to the car.. But a few week's ago she just layed down under a tree in the grass across from the off leash area and watches the other dogs and relaxes. Which is great and just fine. But after about 45 min I try to get her to walk back to the car and if she's not done then we don't go. So my question is how do give her her me time and then get her to the car? Sometimesi don't have 2 hours to sit with her and relax. I know she feels ok health wize and it's more of a stubborn thing. She has also done this at a few other places when she just didn't feel like she wanted to leave yet.. Any advice? And I also tried a dog wagon but she won't stay in. She's a 70 lb Doberman.
Mines 11/12, hard to tell cus shes a rescue and man I need patience😔. I really need to realize she isnt as young as she was (even if she doesnt look like it). I got frustrated with her and I’m just beating myself up for it right now. Ugh
My dog is 18 going onto 19
I have a 13 year old german shepherd who has hip dysplesia, arthritis, pancreatitis, severe gas and for a few months now wants to be hand fed her wet food. She doesn't want to eat on her own. I don't know what to do. I don't want to give her stimulant because my experience with those have not been good with my previous dogs who died of cancer. I just don't know not wanting to eat is an issue with older dogs.
We have a 16 yr old Bichon who has developed a hump or arch in her back. Any idea why this is?
My dog is gonna be 8 years old this month and my brother said dogs die at 8-9 and I’ve been crying for so long now he seems fine run he’s a husky and has wolf in him he walks fine but he hasn’t been eating that much tho so I’m sad

my golden is going soon i dont wanna loose him im going to be broken
I have a 13 year old dog i've had since I was 3 (im 16 now) and he's starting to become more anxious and having bladder problems. I'm trying to be patient, as it's hard for me to grasp that he's getting older. Today he peed all over the kitchen floor and kept walking. I had to spend 20 minute wiping it off with paper towels and then mopping the floor with cleaning agents. Does anyone have any advice? Words of wisdom? Anything?
Theres dog nappies. It sounds foolish but you should defo try get them. There handy
you should abslutely go to the vet! ack! waiting is cruel
We found an ederly stray dog. He has like, no eyesight, infected ears and no teeth. He cries almost all day long. I guess he need constant atention.
My approx 16 y.o Jack Russell habitually now paces the floor every night every hour on the hour. Diabetes was ruled out this week but he whimpers for WATER. you accommodate him with some sips only for moments later he’s having a flood on the rug! I’m besides myself. Diapering and spacious cage at night OR free roam of downstairs(hardwood floors) results in crying and barking! I can’t win. Help me 🆘 pls
My 12 year old golden retriever loves chewing seaweed branches at the beach
my old girl will be 21 in June and she´s driving me crazy. she´s constantly barking and its not pain IDK what she needs........does anyone have any tips??
Omega 3's are great for our senior furbabies minds and medicinal mushrooms can be a great support for the immune system and helping fight against viral infections 🥰💛
I have a 13 year old Husky, however, she doesn't sleep at night. Rather, she sleeps during the day and wonders around at night. Not sure, if this is normal or I should worry. Any advice?
If it's just started, look into it 1st. However, this was what our 15 year old Staffordshire terrier did before he seemed to go senile. I hope she's doing well. 🙏
Older pets can give so much love to us...It only needs to take care properly of them:

My old man is gonna be 14 this June. Had him since i was 5. Love him to death.
Is there anything special i should feed him?
He eats rice, chicken liver, chicken neck, boiled hotdogs, chicken pieces. He never liked fruits and vegetables.
My APBT is 15 yo she is being demanding when she wants to be fed and will not stop! She PEES where she sleeps or on the couch and even on our pillows! She is sooo,bent on getting into the trash I had to put it outside! She makes a mess of MY things and throws them around like a child having a tantrum she barks loudly for seemingly no reason and does not follow commands the way she used to. And stares up the steps as if she’s waiting for my deceased fiancé to come down the steps ! The only time she doesn’t misbehave is when she deep sleeps and I’m moving on top of all this! She will not let me out of her site, stays under my feet constantly! The peeing and eating things that aren’t food are the most disturbing I think. She doesn’t show signs of any UTI either. Help us! Please
is the old dog change their vision when they old?
Yes
I felt really bad for the dog in 2:17
i have street dog ( both male and female ) of age approx 9 to 10 . my female dog find some difficulties while walking. can anyone tell any calcium bone or medicine for them?😊😊
If you need a medicine, you'll have to go to a vet. But here you have some food rich in calcium for your dog such as eggs, bones, fish or yogurt. You'll find more information here: www.animalwised.com/foods-rich-in-calcium-for-dogs-1309.html

My dog is 8 years old. Hes a Chihuahua and poodle mix. He is pad trained and lately he has been peeing on our bed overnight, even though he has a clean diaper pad. Any suggestions?
signifiedbard57 Take to vet. Might be urinart you tract infection. Happened to my 9 year old pit. Antibiotics cleared the Robles up.
Liz Hall well he doesnt do it every night. Its every now and then. Like withing a month or two. But i feel like its more so him now wanting to get up in the middle of the night to go pottie and he just decides to let loose on the bed.
signifiedbard57 could be an urinary tract infection. Your vet can give antibiotics. Take to vet.
Have you put a staircase or ramp at the bed for him? My senior dogs are afraid to get up at night and jump off the bed in the dark to go outside. Lucky for my they wake me up to turn the light on.
Hey... I have a chihuahua and a toy poodle mix . Mine is 11 years old and I’m really scared to lose him.
We have'nt been able to understand why owr now 10 year old lab/boxer mix have begin having first Food allergies, then there's something here and there so we go to the vet often, he howls all the time and we never know if it's cuz he's in pain or just want a treat? Ever night he Wanna sleep under the blanket and he howls or walk on you (he's 35 kilos), yntil he wakes up and he's littelary ruining our night sleep. If the cat is on his spot he'll how to make me remove the cat, where just last year he could be together side by side with the cat. The cat was the bully before, but now it's opposite. The 1st.vet just screwed us over, 2nd.vet found out he only could eat hypoallergenic food, but it's as if he's dissatisfied again 😥 so beside they'll check him for he's recent hotspots he got, if they can see what's going on. My life is now totally fixated around him & I'm exhausted for nothing seems to satisfy him. He acts like my 15 year old daughter! Nothing is good enough!
Could he maybe pick up on her new tern behavior? For it started around same time. And he gets what he want if he howls long enough (as long as it's not unhealthy) but I can't scratch he's belly 24/7 😓 I hope the vet has the answers.
But does anyone think he's picking up on my daughters new behavior? She has autismn and he's her best friend but now she's a teen and he's not No. 1 anymore, her friends are (which is a huge acomplishment from her side, to act more age appropriate) but maybe the dog pays a price? I'm there and has always been, it just seems not enough. I sure hope the vet or anyone can tell me what's happening? It's my 1st.dog cuz my Mom got conned while she had brain tumor and thought she'd bought an English bulldog for 2500$ 🙄 and she was dyibg so I got him eventhough I WAS afraid of dog (not anymore) 😉 but to loose him would be to loose the last piece of my mom! I hope there's a solution for I'm afraid he's in pain or just maybe just bad behavior? I'd never thought a dog could fill my heart with so much love & happiness, but he sure taught me wrong. A life without him is unbareble but he's howling is also too, cuz yeah I can't satisfy him anymore.
Great video/channel, I subbed! Thanks, Xoxo MM 🙏❤️
My dog died in my hands after 15 years of living
😿
Hello my 🦮 is 13 . My question is do they loose appetite ❓
@Nancy La As the dog ages, their mobility will reduce, as will their need to expend energy. They will likely lose their appetite, but not always. Regardless, if their energy consumption is reduced, their food intake needs to be reduced in kind. Without this compensation, they may develop obesity or even suffer organ failure issues.
my dog just died today 😭 at age of 12

Kudos for the Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you thought about - Nonadison Ageing Abscissa (do a google search)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for caring for your ageing dog without the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my m8 finally got great success with it.
Weedborn oils are good for this.
Cheers for the Video! Forgive me for chiming in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you considered - Nonadison Ageing Abscissa (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for caring for your ageing dog minus the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate at last got astronomical results with it.
