Hello! My sweet boy is also 16 years old and weighs about 5.5-6 pounds. He has hearing loss and small cataracts that thankfully haven’t gotten worse and he has less of an appetite. We have noticed his fur is thinning as well. It started back near his tail like your dogs did. At his well dog check up the vet said that can be part of aging. I am hoping it won’t get any worse. Since he eats less we are trying to supplement with vitamins. The fact is they are getting near the end of their life. Each day is a gift. I will be so sad when he has to break my heart and go as I am sure you will be too. ❤️ |
