How to help a senior dog stand/walk?
llyngan asked:
My doggy is a senior and she has a hard time walking, because her 2 back legs are weakening, so she has trouble standing up, and I cringe everytime I see her trying to walk (think of a worm or snake slithering). I really want to help her, and I was thinking of purchasing a granny stand for dogs, but I’m not sure if that’s even invented!
If you have any good ideas or found a website where they sell some “help a senior stand” equipment, please link it to me or tell me some good links.
Thanks!

When if ever should you start feeding a dog “senior” formula food?
debbel181 asked:
My Lhasa is 11 yrs. old and not very active (and she never was) and I started to think about if I should switch to a senior formula. She doesn’t eat much dog food, mostly her dish consists of what we have…a little chicken with rice/noodles ect. and a 1/4 cup of dog kibble. She is and always has been the most finicky eater…she hates dog food. If I don’t give her people food she just doesn’t eat.Then by the end of the day she will throw up yellow bile from her empty stomach so I give in and give her people food. ( and sometimes will turn her nose up to that!) What is the reason to switch a dog to senior formula?
she isn’t overweight at all. She does like her walks, and a little rough-up with her 9 mo. old wheaten brother. Should I just add a little glucosimine to her diet?

What is a safe way to help a senior dog lose weight?
Trixies Mama asked:
I have a 14 year old Chihuahua/Beagle who I believe is in need of some weight loss. When I adopted her four years ago she was only 8lbs, and now she is around 13-14lbs. I believe her weight is beginning to cause problems with her joints even. What is a safe way to help her lose some weight?

I take her on two walks a day, and feed her 3 times a day. I also play with her several times through out the day inside the house.

I have care credit, not enough credit and don’t work enough to pay within a year. ASPCAs in bigger cities help their residents but I live in a small town.
