Sounds like Nikki. He is 15-16 years old and runs into things, gets easily confused and startled, will look all around when I call his name like he doesn't know where I am. He is going deaf and his vision is bad. So far he still moves around real well. He goes up the ramp and runs and jumps up on the couch. He does sleep all the time. I have noticed lately in the late evening, he will get up from a sound sleep and just stand on the bed staring at nothing. When my pom Maya had Cushings disease and signs of dementia, the vet put her on the anipril for both conditions and she did really well for about 1 1/2 years. It helped with her getting behind the couch and not knowing where she was. She was only 12. It is so hard to see them age. I would ask your vet about the Anipril as it may help Alexander with some of his symptoms. |
