Our 9 year old Basset Hound has been house trained since she was 6 months old. She has recently started to urinate in the same area of our house in the middle of the night. We take her outside before we go to bed and leave no water in her bowl. Is there something medically wrong with her?

Our 12+ year old lab mix has begun to pant constantly. She is up in the middle of the night walking around panting; during the day - same thing - constant panting. It is not hot in the house and we are losing sleep literally trying to calm her down. Any suggestions, clues as to what may be the problem. Thanks!

Our 12 year old American Water Spaniel is acting increasingly demented. She runs away from us when we call, with her tail between her legs (she has never been swatted or abused). The other night my husband let her out the front door (unusual because it is not fenced) and she took off running with her tail tucked. She spent the night outside because we could not find her. Is there anything we can do to help her?

I have a 14 year old min. poodle (almost 15) He is still full of energy but wets whenever he wakes. I take him out whenever I catch it, but he doesn't seem to have the feelings anymore. He can go outside and do his thing and come in and go again. Anything I can do for him and ME?

My dogs are going to be 10 years old. They are Beagles and brother and sister. They have always been the sweetest dogs, until recently. Now they are becoming aggressive. Even when I go to pet them they will growl. Is there something wrong with them physically or could it all be mentally?
