Hi there,
My parents' 18yr old cocker spaniel is soiling inside the house when people come to stay or when her routine is out i.e. mum and dad go away and then come back. She is very old but is still very mobile etc. My parents want to put her down but I want to know if there is anything we do as this is not a daily occurrence and therefore can't be put down to losing control of her bowels. Ins aying that, for sometime her pooh has been rather soft.
Please advise asap as my parents feel they are doing the right thing but I feel that if she is not in pain than they're not. They seem to think a vist to the vet is useless also.
Thanks!
