Confusion


Our older girl dog is around 14, and although I'd heard of dementia in animals before - this was the first time I've witnessed it first-hand.

The dogs had kind of piled up in the entry way and she got pointed in the wrong direction under our glass table. The wrought iron has a decorative scroll which was touching her left shoulder and because of this sensory feedback, she thought she was trapped.

She absolutely could not figure it out. I could practically hear her thinking, "WTF? WTF?" It was so sweet and so sad all at the same time...
