[Dailydrool] Old Dogs & Food

[lea pierce]

Ahoy Riche houndservant,

Adm. is the youngest Adm. in Sonoma Admiralty (the ONLY Adm, it must
be admitted), so feeding not an issue at present. Counter surfing a
BIG problem with Adm., who believes (quite correctly), that anything
left out is fair game.

However, Houndservant had elderly beagle (ATB at 15 years 7 months)
from puppy to end. Last six months of said hound's life, same
problems. Houndservant found that scrambled eggs with a little ham and
a little cheese went down well. Well, better than most stuff.

Ask competent vet, but food issues could be heart-related, as in
congestive heart failure (which is what got the beagle in the end).

Houndservant very sorry that beloved Hound Majestic is struggling.
Very difficult. Especially on guardian houndservant Riche.
