Lyla was up last night around 10:30 and making that whimpering sound that usually indicates she got her back leg caught on her collar while scratching but it wasn't the case.
We haven't exactly pinpointed what the problem is but she's been really quiet today. She hasn't eaten but has been drinking water.
No signs of stomach torsion. She's not bloated and doesn't appear to be tender.
So what could it be?
She's sticking pretty close to me today and has been sleeping on and off throughout the day.
I talked to a vet and they said we could bring her in for an xray to rule out the stomach torsion and do some blood work to determine what's going on. We're going to wait and see what she's like tonight first.
She genuinely just appears to be really tired and she is about 11 or 12 years now which is up there for a german shepard/rottweiler.
Hopefully she just needs a day off from playing with the boys and chasing the birds in the backyard...

I'm hoping it was just a Pajama Day for Lyla. Sometimes Emma is feeling under the weather too. It's like she gets a cold, but is just lethargic.

i hope she's feeling better. Our pets are such an important part of our lives, aren't they?
Keep us posted on Lyla's health. Hopefully she is just feeling the aches and pains of the oncoming cooler weather of winter. Her furry friend Cody sleeps more and more, but still goes to the door when I mention 'car ride'!
