My elderly pug is starting to have health problems (don’t be judgy please, he was a stray I adopted, I don’t approve of breeding them). He has diabetes, atopic dermatitis, cataracts, and now seems to have developed tracheal stenosis. We are trying cough syrup to help but it doesn’t seem to be helping a lot, he still wakes up and horks through the night at least once. It is definitely the downslope of his life, and although he seems reasonably content, I have to be vigilant to make good decisions for him. However my first foster dog just died at almost 17 so I suppose anything can happen. I read a really good article last week about making decisions about your pet’s end of life and it helped a lot. He’s a very sweet dog but it’s definitely a bit hard to keep him happy.
My mixed breed is as healthy and happy and sweetly bad as can be. I wish he didn’t want to fight other dogs so much, but he’s really fun and active and my God he loves me so much. He spoons me all night long.
