Friend of mine recently adopted a 10 y.o. dog from the shelter where she volunteers. For months, he was acting weird, spinning in circles, wandering the house and calling. The THIRD vet decided to do blood work; THYROID! Third day on the meds, he settled right down to be a lovely older pup! She's had him 4 months now, and only been able to sleep for the past week or so. Her husband was going nuts!

So perhaps, you thinking he is missing Pidge all this time is not it? Just a thought.
Yes, he was tested for thyroid and it wasn't too out of whack but Dr. Lee, at my request, started him on meds but they didn't agree w/him at all; he vomited daily so Dr. Lee said to stop them. He did begin to grow thin when he was in his declining years, so that's part of it.
