My retriever cross is 8 and a half, and has recently seemed to be lagging behind me a lot when we’re on a walk. She gets 50-60 mins off lead in the afternoon and a 15 min evening on lead walk. Do you think this is too much for a dog her age?
She had a health check at the vet recently and was fine. Lots of lumps and bumps on her now but the vet wasn’t worried about any of them.
She seems to need less food now too. She will eventually eat her dinner but doesn’t gobble it up like she used to.
Does this just sound like older dog behaviour?
