Is Trump God's chosen one to be president of the United States in 2024?

Just wondering if any one has had to deal with an old dog who was suffering from Dementia.

 

 

Dog dementia, also known as Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD), is a cognitive disorder in dogs that causes similar symptoms to Alzheimer's in humans. It's a condition related to the aging of a dog's brain, which leads to changes in behavior and primarily affects memory, learning, and comprehension.

 

Thanks

What symptoms does the dog show? There isn't much treatment available for humans, so can't see it being much different for a dog.

It is very similar to human dementia in many ways, and if your dog is suffering from it, you have my sympathy because it's a tough situation.

wThere isn't really any treatment. There are some supplements that people say help and a couple of meds (i.e., propentofylline), but it's debatable whether the potential for improvement is worth the side effects. The only practical advice I could give is to keep them busy with exercise and especially puzzle toys during the day because they often have sundowner symptoms, as humans do, with a disturbed sleep-wake cycle. If they are up all night pacing and barking at walls, no one gets any sleep, and that's not sustainable for any length of time.

 

Good luck.
