can dogs get senile dementia?
Yes , my first gsd started sitting out in the rain for no reason when old age started creeping in she had always hated getting wet before , confision over little things , that again she was fine with before,spoke to our vet and she explained it was the onset of dementia she was given medication it helped for a while ,but im sorry to say she got a lot worse and started having fits each one it took her longer to come around from we decided it was the best for her to have her put to sleep she was 13 a good age for a shepherd even though i now have 3 other dogs i miss her terrible and that was 9 yrs ago
