We just lost our Little Bear that we had for 13 years. He was my buddy and a sweet guy.
Little Bear
He had some medical problems and was overweight but he was getting around fine and was a happy dog. We lost his sister at the end of November and you could tell he missed her terribly.
Bear and sister
When he started frequent coughing I took him to the vet - several times - and finally we had x-rays done but nothing was ever for sure diagnosed. His heart and lungs look fine for a 13 year old. I had to practically beg the vet to get us some kind of cough medicine. The codeine syrup worked for the cough but he was still hyperventilating.
The x-rays were sent to a specialist and before we could get the results he passed away overnight.
We found out from the specialist that he had a collapsed trachea. I'd never heard of this before, but it can be a thing and apparently there is just almost nothing that can be done for it.
Awful quiet around here now that both dogs are gone.

(15,525 posts)They told me surgery would be very risky for a dog this old. And that there was almost nobody in the whole state that did the surgery anymore because the outcome was so uncertain.
