My dog has doggy Alzheimer. She on petmeds, its helping a lot, but she is still restless at night what should I do.:confused:

Unfortunately I don't know a lot about Alzheimers...

I did however find this great site that lists activities you should be doing with your dog as well as all the stages and symptoms to expect

Pet meds will only help the situation a bit, it is far from a cure. She will still exhibit the symptoms of Alzheimers.

Are you prepared to care for a special needs dog?

My 12 year old zu/poogle has the same problems ,she is on phenobarbs from the vets and Activait which we buy online.she is a lot better and sleeps most nights.

OMG! I looked at the link and every single point on there is Indy!

I was just telling hubby that I don't know what I'm going to do once I go back to work because Indy keeps me up most of the night barking, wandering around, panting. He's also been using the indoors as a potty, not cool!

He hit every point.

Now I'm really sad. :(

Bring it to the vet, and let them put it to sleep.

Is that what you would do if your mom had alzheimers?

It's what I'll do if I develop it.
