Ebony, are you ok?
I think our little dog is finally losing it. The last few days our poor baby 11yo cockerspaniel has been wandering around the house aimlessly, getting into every single nook and cranny, bumping into this and that and wreaking chaos everywhere she goes. On top of this, i’ve started to become aware of her inability to leap up onto the couches anymore, which i’m sure sure could do just fine a week or two back.
Now, i don’t want to claim to know much about dogs (or animals in general), but is this some sort of odd “*I’m sick, please help me*” cry of help from our puppy ? - I wish she had a blog so i could know what’s going on (i’m sure this concept was mentioned once by kitta.net but i couldn’t find it anywhere) ..
Also, does it make me a bad person that i’ll try not to think about her - i’ll push the thoughts of her to the back of my head, and i’ll ignore the fact that she’s been scratching at my door from like 1am-2am until i let her in, whereby she’ll continue to wander around my room for about 30mins before passing out on my couch?
Mum comes home for school break today - so hopefully she’ll know what to do, i mean it is *her* dog.. not that that’s a good excuse.

You are right, it’s called Geriatric Separation Anxiety, my dog Harry had it for about 3 months before he died. Crying like a puppy at your door at 1am, bumping into things and becoming lost are all signs of it. Do take her to the vets to find out what’s wrong, I’m told drugs can help with the anxiety. I wish we could have given Harry something to help with the pain during his last months.
