    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    Just spoke to my mother again. Rocky is still eating, but has diarrhea (which he often has lately). We also noticed that his fur is getting reddish, and we were told this is a sign that his liver isn't working. This is also what his vet said (that his liver is enlarged). I don't know if meds would still help, or if they would only prolong his suffering. Rocky's vet is one of those who believe that "nature should just do its work" when an animal is that old.

    Rocky has had a long life for a large dog, I tend to agree with your Mom's vet. I hope Rocky has some more happy days till his time is here.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!
