My old dog Bud is not doing well. He's losing himself during the day if you know what I mean. We are in a brand new house so we keep him in a large cage with our smaller dog while we're at work. He won't get up and has really sickly look about him. Not sure what do as far as considering putting him down, if it comes to that he might just be sick. He is well over 13 years old though. Don't like seeing him like this...thoughts?

Take Bud to the vet for an evaluation. Prepare mentally, to say goodbye to Bud. This is a tough situation, but he's likely suffering. We just lost our black lab two weeks ago in a similar situation.....sux!

It sucks. Putting one of my last hunting dogs and buddies down on Sat. My dog is 14 1/2 but anything over 10-11 years is an old dog. Its hsrd to do but when dogs reach that age its normally best thing for the dog.

Sometimes the hardest decision to make is the right one.
13 for a canine is approximately 90 human years. I can only hope to see 90 years and by then I won't want to suffer. I hope we have (human) assisted suicide here in Texas by then.
Take him to the vet and have him checked out - good luck.

Definitely get him checked out. I'm sorry he and y'all are going through this. Preema was 17 when I took her to the vet for the last timbre. That was February 2 and it's still hard to believe she's not here anymore. I'll pay for guidance for you and that Bud recovers

Man idk, but I'm sorry Bud is not feeling well, what does the vet say? Thanks man. We just got him home Monday from the vet, we kenneled him while out of town for the weekend. Normally he'll be out of sorts for a day and then everything's fine. Perhaps it's a bug or something. Will give it another day and see.

Could be the dog flu, or dehydration.
