We have an 11 almost 12 yr old lab. His health has been going downhill for awhile now.
We can tell he's having a bit of trouble seeing, especially when going from light to dark and vice versa.
He's been moving real slow for the last few months. Doesn't wanna do much except sit around and eat. Although last few days hasn't been eating like himself. Instead of wolfing down the bowl when we put it out he will take a few bites here and there.
This morning before I got home from work my wife said he was in another room whining real bad and hasn't been able to walk much today. Like he's having a hard time putting weight on his back legs, takes a few steps and lays down.
I picked him up and put him outside and he went to the bathroom and laid down and has since been shaking real bad. He will get up on his front legs, kinda do a circle and lay back down.
I don't think there is much the vet can do for quality of life, and he hates the vet. I'd rather not put him thru that if we're gonna go thru with putting him down.
What do y'all think? Is it time?
