is 12 years old and she is having trouble with her hips. She can't take arthritis meds as they make her blood sugar shoot up. Her tummy is getting touchy now and her appetite is not great. I cant stand the idea of losing her. I would need a replacement to feel safe...…….but I shudder at the thought of training a new puppy. She sees the vet next week. I don't want to lose her.

When my childhood dog had trouble with her hips and had a few other struggles she was eventually put down so she would not need to suffer any longer. It sounds like parting with your dog will be hard on you and I am so sorry; I know you must love her so. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I raised her from a tiny puppy. I watched her learning...….she has a brain like a sponge. When I gave her her treats last night I sealed the bag, set it aside and told her, "All gone." She tried to 'shake' for more. I said, "All gone." She stared into my eyes, then slowly turned her eyes to the full bag......looked at me again......back to the bag..She's smart....SHe's funny, and she is very loyal.
I’m so sorry, you must be feeling so worried. Your dog sounds so lovely ❤️. I agree with the other person about CBD Oil. I think that would be worth a try ❤️❤️
My old rescue was almost crippled with arthritis. I was advised to give him YouMove and feed him green tripe along with his diet. He's really enjoying being able to move again and is now enjoying a raw food diet. All the best ann
I’m sorry 😐Yesterday i had to put my cat down. I have been preparing myself for weeks for this by spending special time each day with Charlie, imprinting in my mind how soft he feels, his purr, his fur all over my room. But it was time. He was suffering and he didn’t need to anymore. It got to the point where his pain overrode my need for him to be here. His suffering wasn’t necessary. Mine is inevitable.
Why?
Because I loved him. He loved me.
I needed him and he needed me.
He became our cat 2 years ago after the owner left him with us. He was a PTSD cat, who hid under any furniture for 6 months. He reminded me of myself. At the end, he would sit every morning on his ‘pillow’ right next to my head and purr while I clean out his crusty eyes. I have such good memories with him.
Keep telling us about your canine protector. Losing a pet is extremely hard. Big hug to you.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Have you considered a herbalist? My own one is able to treat people and animals, to great effect and life longevity. It's an option. Twelve is quite a young age for a dog.... we sometimes owe them more than we can give. But we should never give up trying .... x Sending love to you both.
Good ideal. She started eating grass, and I remembered that we use charcoal to absorb some substances in the GI tract, so I burned so toast and had her eat it. SHe is eating her dog food again, so that is good.
I had my dog at the vet yesterday. She has a ruptured cyst on her stomach. We are treating it with meds. May have to have it removed if it doesn't heal soon. She is acting like her normal self again.
