I was wondering about the Jackie Collins myownself    But reading material aside, Good Job AnnIE   

[How to tell when your dog is in pain]

I can’t help much with the meds as it is really trial and error to see what works with each dog. I had a couple of oldies with back end/spinal issues, and acupuncture, cold laser, and the Assisi loop worked well for both. Buddy looks wonderful   I also had one of those soft harnesses that I kept on Val 24/7 towards the end, very good for helping her get up. Both Val and Conner made it past 14, mostly comfortable, until suddenly they weren’t and it was obvious they were ready to go. I hope Buddy’s leaving is a long way off, but you will know 

edited to add, I don’t know if this is an option where you live but I was lucky enough to find a vet who came to the house to do the acupuncture. Might be worth looking around to see.

Willa is amazing

 I am so happy to hear this, but honestly, not surprised. Willa seems to be such a positive, happy, upbeat girl that I would expect her to be all “leg, what leg? I’m great!”

Great update, will continue to backandforth for a peaceful night!

I am so sorry you are having to go through this again   But, because she is so young and has such an upbeat, positive personality, and because you sadly have had experience and know what to expect, I hope  that things go as easy as possible.

And  for Richard, hoping he can have as many good, pain free days as possible before he has to leave.

[LaVida (I've Got Life) 5/8/12-7/24/23]

She was the happiest dog I ever met and she wanted everyone around her to be happy too. You will be greatly missed sweet girl
