He's a beautiful boy!

I feel ya...my lab will be 14 in February. She has arthritis and i think her hearing and sight are slowly going away..plus she has mange...it feels like you're fighting a losing battle..but ya just have to hang in there...you'll know when it's his time.

Get him on some liquid glucosamine, it will help alot with his arthritis.

syn flex is the best

maggie got arthritis when she was 8...the vet put her on rimadyl and prednisone(i think?) and they didnt really help...so i took her off of those and put her on glucosamine and i noticed a difference....she even runs and plays with ozzy sometimes..only for like a minute but i think that's pretty good lol.

I know how you feel - my Sadie is 13. I wish she was still 10! Vet visits become more important with an older dog. Sadie has blood work every year just to check for potential problems.

You can't stop aging but you can enjoy your time with Toby now. Have fun with him!
