I have a 6yr old male Jack Russell and he has not been eating properly but a few mouthfuls of tidbits he is slowly drinking water and he is losing weight, he chewed his bedding also a sponge he found there were no cleaning chemicals on the sponge. Somebody told me that he is this way because we live nextdoor to es and they could be in heat is this what is happening to him. My husband and I are very concerned for our dog.
