Hi everyone!
I am new to the forum.
I have an 8 year old F basset named Roxy and I am worried about her and need advice. About two weeks ago we had to put our other dog, Midget, (cocker/yorkie mix) down after 13 long years.
She was Roxies mentor/friend/lead dog.
Ever since that fatefull day Roxie seems to be getting very depressed. She is used to eating twice a day but lately she has stopped eating in the morning. In the evening she hesitates to eat but eventually does. She does have times of sporadic energy but seems more and more sad.
Unfortunatly, we are not in a position to get another companion for her. Should I think of finding her a home with other Bassets or do you think she will come out of it. She was very co-dependent of Midget.
Sorry for the long first post
I would appreciate any and all advice or help.
Thanks
