Donating YT 4000 Club Member | It sounds like he needs to go in to the Vet's again. The not being able to get him to turn around in his crate could be from dementia, or it could be that the crate is too small and he's getting arthritic, so it's hard to move. The shaking could also be a sign of pain. Sorry the poor little guy is having a rough time.

| Ah I just read everyone's posts and thank you all for all of the remarks! He does sleep an awful lot, usually gets up, goes pee outside, eats, and then repeats. I do NOT want to "PTS" as yous call it, because i never recall him crying or welping in pain, ever. He is a might trooper!! he hasn't been much of a nuisance with the peeeing everywhere in the house, his new thing is peeing in his bed. The only problem we have with him is how bad he smells from constantly peeing. PEE YOU. I'm definitley investing in some belly bands very very soon. I'm tired of going to vets because everyone gives me different ideas of his ages, his problems, and all their solution to everything is..Put him to sleep. NO. STOP. And i am sick of hearing it, he's blind and he pees, okay... does not mean I have to put him to sleep. I heard about pill that stop them from peeing.. is this true? Also poor Bentley one second he'll be sleeping then the next second you hear a big tumble; he has tried to climb up my three wood steps and failed miserably. I swear, this happens almost every day at least 3 times a day; although this has recently stopped and he gave up once and for all. Oh well in all Bentley is just being a little dog and click clacks through the house minding his own buisness. We made arrangments to get him fixed and once we got there they refused to do it because of how old he was and that he might of not been able to handle the ..anastesha? lol not sure how to spell it. But yes anyway i just gave him a bath tonight and his spine is absolutely absurd, you could see very little the liens of his spine through his skin; and i'll say, he has gained weight since i found him because he tires my hand out when i carry him! So he is not too skinny. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | There is medicine to help with the dementia. Maybe you could try a little ramp for him to use instead of the stairs.

| It sounds as though you give him the best care that you can. He would probably not be in this world now if not for you. Bless you for having a big heart and caring for and about him. There is medication that can sometimes help with both dementia and lack of urinary control.

| Hi everyone. For the past two days Bentley has been walking in circles and sleeping all day. Today he refused to walk, could not stand up, and refused to eat. He was in the worst condition you could ever imagine. We took him straight to the vet.... he had cancer all through his little precious bodies and kidney failure; i hope he will remember me for loving him as much as i could! thank you everybody. I hope he sleeps better tonight and for the rest of eternity. |
