Oddbean new post about login | logout One of my dogs is definitely getting old. He’s 14. Him: door scratch. I want to go out back. Me: open door. Have fun buddy. Him: comes in after 30 minutes or so. Me: let’s chill for a bit buddy. Him: door scratch. I want to go out. Me: did you forget you were just fuckin out. wtf man.
His bladder is as good as mine 😆 Mine just turned 5. He still likes to run around a bit, but prefers to sniff stuff now, when we go for walks. It's interesting seeing their habits slowly change over time. My previous dog Bella, when she hit 10, she would just go out and chill by herself for hours. Never used to do it before.
One of my boys is starting to do that as well. He is already deaf. Im starting to think he is getting senile now too. He Comes in from outside lays down for a few minutes, gets up, wanders back to the door and stares outside like he hasn’t just been out.
Dealing with the hearing loss here as well. I just moved him to the couch & he’s like, perfect. Just where I want to be. Probably forgets he was even at the door.
Mine is 14, deaf and wobbly but he’s still loving his food and walks
As long as they’re happy, eating, drinking and walking all is great. 👍
