Lazy 6 yo coton 😟

by Jenna
(Jordan )

My dog Stella is about 6 years old, she stopped playing with toys as much and gets tired easily when she's during a walk! She used to always get me toys to play with her but now she just wants to sleep, I don't know what is wrong and if there's something I can do. She often gets moody and doesn't even want us to pet her.. And even today she was resisting going on a walk which never happens (she usually gets so excited just sees the leash) I'm getting worried but I'm not sure if it's a normal thing for cotons to get lazier as they get older?

Any help would be great thank you so much

My Nala gets lazy during walks also. I think they do get lazy as they get older. She is 7 months and is not hyper as she use to be. She has not been moody, which I’m grateful for.
If your baby does not want to be cuddled or pet, it’s good to see a Vet. Hope it gets better.

coton not feeling well NEW

I think she might not be feeling well. Sounds like she doesn't want to be bothered if she doesn't even want you to pet her. I would take her to the vet to have a check up. Something might be off with her bloodwork or underlying problem.

It's normal for dogs to sleep more as they get older, but it sounds like your Stella isn't feeling well because you say she gets moody and doesn't want want you to pet her. A trip to the vet might be in order.

I hope she is okay. Keep us posted.
