I know what you mean BD! Billy was always on high alert when food was being prepared. Now he just looks over and then snuggles back into bed.
As you say Marko, he is a senior and the article you included reiterated the age thing. He just seems way more tired than 3 months ago but I guess that would equal almost 2 years if I use the 1 human year to the 7 dog year formula.
