I think it's going to be a sad day here... ALFIE, my 14 year old mixed breed seems to be fading fast. I just recently noticed that he didn't seem to be eating as much as usual and the next thing I know he is noticably losing weight. It then dawned on my that though he was going outside to potty, I didn't see him really having any bowel movements like he used to almost everytime he went out. He's had a slight heart murmur all of his life and when he went in for his annual shot/check-up, the vet's words sounded as if he was doing very well for such an old dog, only that his murmur was a little worse than before. Well, it's 5 months later and I feel it's getting the best of him.:( I woke this morning around 4am not being able to get back to sleep with worry and sorrow for him. He has been laying on the floor since then and I don't think he can even get up. I'm just waiting for the vet's office to open to take him in for what I dread will be our last good-bye. :cry2: Maybe I'm over-reacting...but I don't really think so. He looks as sad as I feel. I will let you all know when we(?) get back |
Oh my gosh, I am so sorry to hear this. You must be so very sad. Please keep us updated on the visit and we will be praying for you and your baby. :( |

Rose, prayers for Alfie & his loving family. |
Rose, My beloved Mozart (mix) is in his 13th year, and also starting to slow down a bit. But, sometimes he just goes through spurts of not feeling well...like when the weather is wet and cold. I'm not at all trying to little your concern - you're his mom, and know him. Just wondered if the weather had changed there enough to affect him for awhile...?? Looking forward to hearing that he is back to himself. Mo and Abigail sends *kissies*. ada |
Awww, it's so hard when our babies get old...I'll be watching for an update on your guy. Sending prayers that it was just a bad couple of days. |
I know exactly how you feel. I had to let my almost 16 year old Chihuahua go to rainbow bridge in September. Thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Warm hugs to you. |

i'm so sorry your old guy isn't feeling well. Hopefully its just a little bug and nothing serious. good luck at the vet |
Rose, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Please tell us how the vet appointment went this AM. God Bless all of you! |
That is very sad, and I don't think you're over reacting. I just rehomed Penny, and I'm very sad, and can't get over it. |
Sending warm thoughts to Alfie, his Momma and Daddy. I also hope he is just slowing down, but he will let you know when he is too tired. He looks like a precious pup. Take care, Deborah and Charlie Barley |
