I have a beautiful black lab. Adopted her aged 11 so she is now 13/14. She has had bouts of sickness for about the last month and every time I am about to book the vet, it clears up for 4 or 5 days. The latest bout started yesterday and i now have an appointment for 5.30.
Her other aliments include drinking excessively, no interest when people come in the room and sleeping lots. We can't walk her anymore as she limps after even a short walk and her legs have started giving out in the last week. It's all happened steadily but i now feel like I have let her down by not going after the first sickness ... i just assumed she kept eating cat poo.
She also has a history of biting, i assume as a result of her previous life.
I don't know what to expect from the vet later. Is it her time? She still has happy moments but they are less frequent by the day. She has skipped breakfast today.
I'm not ready for this.
