    Going through the same with Lils re eyesight Judy , she’ll see something ahead on her walk and suddenly stop and stare , could be people or another dog that she’s usually happy to meet but now doesn’t seem to want to interact like she used to, she also walks with a low head carriage and seems...

    Canine cognitive dysfunction (dementia in dogs)

    Certainly isn’t Judy, you can only hope they’re happy in their own little way :rolleyes: we often get flashes of the younger Lily and you think yes, they’re doing ok but then she goes back to the new Lily, still gorgeous and sweet but different if you know what I mean.

    Kennel cough

    Thank you Niamh, I tried her with honey but she won’t take it, being really fussy at the moment with everything, it’s a struggle to get her meds down her.

    Kennel cough

    Thank you Finsky, yes, vet did an examination and said her heart was fine and confirmed it was kennel cough ( guess we have to trust them ) when she had it a couple of years ago it cleared quite quickly and didn’t affect her at all. We use a harness on her as if we see a cat she will try and...

    Kennel cough

    Lily, who will be 13 this year, has kennel cough and is affecting her badly, poor girl. She’s had it a few times over the years but lasted a few days and she’s recovered fine. Due to her being older and hasn’t been herself lately anyway took her to the vets who put her on antibiotics and anti...

    Cocker Spaniel with bad cough

    My vet doesn’t charge anything other than the cost of the prescription which if I remember was about £15, could possibly save you a fair bit of money ;)
