My senior rescue yorkie had it. He was estimated to be around 19 years old. Sadly he went into kidney failure a few months ago and I had to make that hard decision. I had him 2 1/2 years and he slowly declined. He went blind and deaf but still loved to eat. He was able to get around pretty good until the last month. With the CDS I would find him wandering lost during the night, he would stand behind the couch and just stare. It's very hard to see them failing but I don't think Nikki suffered. They do have medicine that can be very effective in some dogs. I think its spelled anipyril. Hopefully your vet can help you decide if this will help him. Good luck and keep us posted. |
