18 is quite old for a dog. Has she seen a vet lately?

 

[stephanie1992]

she went 2 months ago. and they said she was healthy. only problem was arthritis and we got medication for it.

Obviously, nobody can tell you that over the internet. You should take her to the vet. Good luck!

Wow! 18 is a very long life for a dog. You must be giving her a wonderful life with lots of love.
I would suggest giving her what she feels she can handle, keep her warm and comfortable with lots of gentle cuddles and love and do give your vet a call in the morning as, like older humans, older dogs can dehydrate quickly.
If it is her time she will let you know in her own way.
Hugs to you both and I hope you have a peaceful night.
It is not easy helping our dear friends through their final stages of life.

If ya can, maybe another trip to the vet to check her over.

Is it bloody stool? It sounds like Parvo. Old dogs and puppies get it. If she starts having seizures, find an emergency vet. I hope everything is okay, but 18 is very old for a dog!!

It might be hard but if she is still sick tomorrow I would take her to the vet for sure tomorrow if possible. The vet might recommend you to put her down.
