Dog dilemma: My old chocolate lab is showing the signs of heading down hill fast.

Home More advice Pets & Animals

I went through this with my black lab back in the summer.

He's not getting around very well. He's confused, but seems happy.

His appetite is hit and miss. One day he won't eat, the next he can't get enough.

I held on to the black lab til he got so bad he was suffering and couldn't eat, or walk. I had to have the vet put him down.

Question: Do I wait that long for this one or just do the inevitable before he suffers more?

He's an outside dog on invisible fence.........(I could never stand to chain a dog up).....he has 2 acres here to run on, ........of course he cant run anymore.

I don't want to let him get as bad as my other lab did, but yet.......? See what I mean?
