Take him in and see what's wrong . It's hard to let go but it's better than seeing them suffer .
Prayers up for y'all .

When you think its time its already past time.
Just put mine down 3 or 4 weeks ago and I think I did her good, she didnt suffer too long.

I feel for you, mine is pushing 15 yo but still has a bit of spunk left, she also frequently shows her age with extreme lethargy and sluggishness. I think you will know when its that time, again im sorry but its part of it

Very sorry to hear about your dog. See what the vet has to say and go fro there. I had one we thought was going to have to be put down and turned out his anal glands were just clogged up and putting pressure on nerves that had him crippled up. Hes still going strong. Like said above hope for the best but be prepared for the worst.

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? What does your vet advise?

Take him to the vet to ensure he's not suffering. It's hard. I'll be doing it soon, too. My babe is almost 16yrs old Golden. God Bless your dog!

My lab got sick and laid around all day and occasionally peeing himself. I spent night after night grilling a chicken breast and white rice so he would eat something. Some days he ate, others wouldn't. Eventually I decided to put him down, and as sad as it was, it was nice knowing he was done suffering. He had several cancerous lumps, so I knew time was running out, but doesn't make it any easier. I was really lonely on the boat for several months because I would always pull up to shore, light a cigar and then throw a bottle for him to swim and fetch. That is what I missed the most.
Good luck, hope he turns it around, if not, God Bless!

It's one of the toughest things dog lovers have to do (make the choice). I hold them while the vet puts them down they have more than earned that. Yeah they take a piece of me with them they also leave a piece of them with me. Bitter Sweet is what it is.

Last November, I lost my blond, long hair, daschund, Greta. I held her for hours til I couldn't anymore. I layed her beside me and had my hand on her caressing her when the time came. I was with her until the end. Stay with your special friend to the end.
