13 year old dog not eating, blind with diabetes, vets can find nothing else wrong medically
I have a 13 year old Collie/Labrador cross who is blind with diabetes. She get's her insulin as instructed by the vet, but in the past few weeks she has been eating less and less, and now barely eats at all.

She seems to sleep most of the time, and has lost interest in walks/treats etc, and generally seems miserable.

When she does eat, half of the time she throws the food back up. We have been to the vet and they say that medically, apart from the diabetes, she is healthy.

Should we be thinking about facing the inevitable or are there maybe other things we could try first that may work? We have tried different types of dog food to no avail.

Thanks

If she isn't enjoying life, and isn't curable, letting her go is the kindest thing you can do for her.

Ask the vets what decision they'd make for their own pet and why.
