Worried...

[Glacier]

I know I'm over-reacting, I hope I'm over-reacting. Preacher is not well this morning. He's so stiff and seems unstable on his feet. He's reluctant to move one back leg. He's been slowly going downhill for the past few months. He does have some health issues. I know he's at least 11 years old. Last October he almost died. All of his major organs were starting to shut down, for no apparent reason. My vet was able to bring him back that time. So I've had a year of bonus time with him. My mind knows that Preacher's time is likely to be short, but my heart's not ready to accept that yet.

I left him in the house today with a special treat and his best friend, Franklin. Franklin seemed a little worried too. He didn't want to go outside and play in the tons of fresh snow we got overnight. I'm hoping that the weather change and colder temps are just making Preacher feel crappy.

My handsome guy. This was taken this past summer when Preacher was enjoying a sunny day. There's at least a foot of snow in that spot this morning!

Please keep your paws crossed that this is just a bad day for him.

Oh, it's very upsetting to hear this Preacher's always been a favorite of mine. Maybe with age, he doesn't take well to the change in weather? I'll be keeping him in my thoughts and prayers, hoping this special pup will rally. Ciuddle up with your mom and Franklin, sweetheart. Lots of love to you dear Preacher. Get well soon!!!

[Miranda_Rae]

Oh no! I am sorry. I hope he starts to feel better soon. Maybe he is just stiff or has Arthritus (sp?) or something. I know I am not very helpful. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers. Kissies to him!

[LorraineO]

will of course have all paws crossed for him!

[petslover]

I hope your dog gets feeling better. I know with some humans the change of weather makes there bones hurt and stuff. So maybe thats the same with dogs and its nothing serious!

[DJFyrewolf36]

Poor Preacher! I'll be praying for him!

[trayi52]

I'll be keeping Preacher in my prayers and sending good thoughts your way.

I hope that Preacher is feeling better now. Maybe his day inside with Franklin helped him.
