My old girl is really struggling.
She has slowed down considerably over the last few weeks, but has been happy enough.
Yesterday we went to my mum's -her first time in the car for 11 weeks), for a socially distant BBQ, she was fine (slow, but her usual self- barked at the cat next door etc).
Yesterday evening, we noticed she is barely putting any weight on her back right leg, and the other back leg looks like it is barely holding up.
I've come down this morning and she is the same, she struggles into the garden and then lies in the garden as if she can't get back in. I eventually got her back in, she's only eaten half her breakfast (Unheard of) and she won't settle in her bed or on the floor, it;s as if she just can't get comfortable.
We don't know how old she is, at least 12, probably nearer 14. (she is a rescue).
I can't bear the thought of losing her, even though I know this day would come, and I can't bear the thought of her suffering.
