Can Anyone help.I have a 14yr old Cairn who has been acting strange over the last few days he constantly follows me arround and I meam constantly he is very restless panting ALL the time and keeps staring at the walls . I have checked and he is not in pain when touched. He is eating and drinking normaly and his bowls etc have not changed.One big difference is that he smells.He has been deaf for the last six months and is statring to loose his sight.Any ideas    

If he were my dog, I'd take him to the vet.

Definately a case for the vet, this could be anything or simply aging but no one here would be able to say, you vet will need to examine him and maybe do some tests ;)

Hi sorry I have not responded until now but he took a turn for the worst last night so i took him to the vets this monrnig and had to make the hardest decision ever .The vet was brilliant  and very supportive it was just his time and there was nothing that could be done .

So sorry!  We've all been there. :(

Sorry to hear that. :( It's a very hard decision to make, but the last kindness we can give our old friends. One day the happy memories will be stranger than the sad ones.

So sorry to hear this, but sometimes its better to have the timing taken out of our hands, it does make the decision a little easier to make.  It doesn't stop you feeling the same tho, but you did the kindest thing you could for him try to take some comfort from that.

I'm very sorry for your loss - your little lad will be in a better place that us, restored to health and enjoying the company of our friends who've gone before him and await us at the Rainbow Bridge.

God bless, Teri x 

I am so sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you. :(

Lots of sympathy, I'm sure you did the right thing though. :-(

Really sorry to hear your news. I have just got a Cairn Terrier and they are very special dogs. I am sure you did the right thing.
