Well, it was his last day today... My 15 years old dog and workshop
best friend was put to sleep today. We had a baby last year and he
never really accepted his new rank in the family. What made him happy
a few years ago didn't make him budge of an inch today. He started to
bark and show his teeth whenever he didn't appreciate what was going
on around him. He's never done that before and never had any form of
aggressivity. Unfortunately, it's was a very bad mixture with a one
year old baby trying to grab him every minute... An accident waiting
to happen.... The question was not "if it will happen" but more "when
it will happen".


I have a Choc Lab working on 14. Before her a Great Dane that made it to 10
with similar symptoms that you describe. Before that a 7 year old
Weimeraner. Be happy that you had so many hears of friendship and move on
as soon as you can.
