How you know when it's almost time

for BJ's final vet visit and final shot....

Now that he's pretty much completely deaf, it's a very bad sign that his eyes are getting milkier in coloration by month.

Final?


Is he still oblivious and happy?

In his way, yep. But, he's lost 20% body mass since the last visit, his hind legs aren't retaining muscle, and they've started to quiver from him just standing. Plus, his stomach has been giving him more and more problems the last few months and he's turning away food more and more often.

There's a lot more going on with him than just the eyes, unfortunately, but those are the worst symptoms of his aging.
