A couple of weeks ago, I found one more thing over which I could connect with my dog. Vertigo! - Not the movie. I heard her making a noise in our bedroom and when I went to check on her, she was barfing on the carpet. When I let her go outside, she began to stumble around as if drunk, staggering, falling, circling, all the while her head cocked at a weird angle. This was of course, on a Saturday, our vet was closing, so, recognizing her symptoms I started looking it up on the internet. Sure enough, CVD - Canine Vestibular Disease - common in old dogs (she's nearly 14). Thankfully, she was able to drink water on her own and I felt sure that as long as she was hydrated, her symptoms would pass before long, or a least she'd be ok until I could get her to the Vet the next Monday. She ate nothing for three days, but she stayed hydrated and just needed some TLC as she steadily and rapidly improved. Her appetite recovered by the sixth day and now after a full week she's almost 100%. Seeing her deal with it reminded me of the first time I ever had vertigo and how I thought I was going nuts. One of the primary things Vets recommend for CVD is comforting and I could sure do that, know what she was going thru!

How do you know she wasn't just telling you that she thought the carpet looked awful with your bedspread?

Cause she knows better than to critique my tastes in fashion!

"I know what I'll do. I'll PRETEND that I'm sick for a few days, so it will give me an excuse to hork up a technicolor nightmare all over this stupid carpet he chose."
How many YouTube videos exist where someone is on the camera while their dog is in the background licking their junk? Seems to happen often! And why isnt that considered poochography?
