And you know... what one does for their pets is such a personal thing, and the fact that you constantly questioned yourselves shows that you were more in tune to Ashley's needs... but it is a very fine balance, and until one receives a sign of sorts, one cannot know for sure if that time has come. Especially with old dogs, who knows them better than their owners? Another horrible thing happened to me tonight... While walking Peek A Boo for his nightly wee, he started being freaky about the road. So I'm watching him and he's walking all off to one side then the other and really being weird. So not to prolong the drama... I realized he just figured out the road was different.... it had been repaved a year ago, so it's still all nice and new. Normally he walks with 1-3 of his friends, who must distract him enough to where he never noticed the road was repaved.... when we returned to the yard his confidence returned and he seems fine... Or early onset of CCD?

I can't imagine how I'm going to feel when my time comes and all my furry little loved ones are there to meet me at the bridge - bouncing and smiling and playing. I'm crying and laughing both at the picture in my head right now. The love and joy these babies have brought to my life make every ounce of pain seem small by comparison. I dread when Alex's time does come, dread it so much my stomach hurts, but I wouldn't trade one minute with him to escape what's coming. Hugs, Bonny

| Thank you! Well, it seem Mr. Alexander doesn't like liver either. I'm having to hide the pills in a bit of cheese before he'll take them. That's ok, though - he deserves a little treat mixed in.

I'm not sure what to say about Peek A Boo. Since he normally walks with friends, maybe he just had more time to do a little exploring? Or maybe like you said, he didn't have the distraction and got a little bored? From what I've seen with Alexander, the OCD made him less interested in things. He quit sniffing, exploring and venturing into new territory. I know that each pup is different, but Peek A Boo's doesn't sound like OCD behavior to me. I'm sending prayers and gentle huggins for him.

| I've seen those before but never tried them. I'll stop at the store and pick some up today. Thanks for the suggestion!

| I use cream cheese. It hides any bitter taste and it coats the pill really well. Then when they start to eat it the thickness of the cream cheese sticks to the pills and hides any nasty pill taste. When I need to give a pill they would all line up like it was a treat so everyone would get a little. Mine always would eat the cheese and spit out the pill

| I use Hostess Streusel cakes. Just a tiny bit around the pill...works like a charm. I have a couple of pups who get sick with cheese and I don't trust the Greenies company .. they bought out Pill Pockets and that was when I stopped buying them.

I'm gonna stick with the Cheez Whiz for his pills. He's used to it, I'm used to it and it works for us. Besides, he still has to take the Anipryl and glucosamine daily and it's so easy to just mush them all into a little mound of the cheese stuff.
