Our 14 year old lab is losing the use of her back legs and is on Metacam tablets every other day to help her. Some days she can barely walk, but those are days when the weather is good and she spends most of the day outside and runs a lot. I've learned to give her a tablet that night before bed. She is still stiff, but a little more mobile. Yes, the day will come when she can't move at all. It happened with our 90 lb Draathar. We started sleeping downstairs with him till he could barely move. I dread that day with Maggie.
