Aw, poor pup. At least he doesn't appear to be in any pain. That is a blessing in itself. Enjoy every day to its fullest and spoil him. Lots of petting and skritches are in order.

I have been through this 7 times and my 2 current pups are getting on in age. It is never easy, but it is the price that we pay for unconditional love.

We have a rule in my house, never treat a pet like furniture. If you have to step over them, that deserves a pet....sometimes a biscuit too.
