My senior dog won't eat
My dog is 12 years old, a shepherd mix, medium size female. She stopped eating a few days ago and nothing I try to feed her tempts her, even her favorite foods. She also seems quite listless lately. Other than that, I haven't noticed any problems.
Please help! |

Try to get her to the vet yet this week. It could be something easily cured. For more details, see the sticky at https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/dogs/i...tml#post254171
Tempting her with rich food will not cure what is causing her not to eat. |

My pug mix started behaving similarly last year at age 9. Her energy levels went down considerably and she slept a lot. We thought she was just getting older. Then she started peeing in the house out of the blue. I took her to the vet and discovered she had diabetes. Now she gets insulin 2x a day and is back to behaving like a puppy again.
Good luck. |
