    Default 10 year old eyes and ear infection

    Sebastian went for his annual today. He is 12lbs 11 oz, the same as 2 years ago. His back and knees checked out ok. I noticed that he doesn't seem to see well in the dark. Dr Lantry didn't see anything serious, just "10-year-old eyes". There are some changes in the lenses but nothing that would need treatment. And he has a yeast ear infection. Waiting for blood results.

    I noticed that most of mine have started to not see or hear as well around that age. Cash actually sees pretty well at 14 but his hearing is really getting bad. Getting old is no fun.

    Hoping for great bloodwork. Doxie always seemed to get yeast infections in his ears which the Vet always said was common for floppy earred dogs. I noticed Nero is either communicating with spirits or she has started barking at air. He vet visit comes up in a few weeks.

    I am noticing the same thing with Pogo and Pixel. Getting old sucks :(

    Glad to hear about the knees though. That is great.
