apologies for the name change (when mumsnet changed recently my username did not work!)
my 'lurch' who is 13 had been having problems last autumn - lump on his leg and general lassitude and after numerous vet visits his chronic infection in his front leg seemed to heal up so I have cosseted him since as best I could.
The last week or so he is having accidents (poo and wee) in the house although I have been making the point of trying to get him outside (5 times a day if possible) and he had previously been so good with his toileting. Short walks seem to make him short of breath and reluctant (as they do me but I have angina so not unexpected) and he seems unsettled.
Should I consider PTS before he gets worse or hang on in there and soldier on (as he is doing). He does not seem to be in pain but I am so aware that I should not leave it too late.
It will break my heart to lose him but I want to do the best for him.
