drharps Posted September 21, 2023 Report Share Posted September 21, 2023 Curious on people's thoughts regarding this. My BC is 6, and has been wanting pets more when she is near me, but when I'm doing other things (e.g. working), she will isolate herself in other rooms or areas. She is currently under a bush in the far corner of the yard. I know she has some bulging discs and it causes her pain, but this is the first she has this consistently and to this length isolated herself. Thoughts on what to do, and look for?

urge to herd Posted September 21, 2023 Report Share Posted September 21, 2023 Check in with your vet, her pain level may be increasing due to changes in the discs. Ruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urge to herd Posted September 22, 2023 Report Share Posted September 22, 2023 Forgot to mention this ~ some pain medications become less powerful as a dog's (or human's) body becomes used to it. Ask your vet if the particular medication your girl is on might be one of those. In which case, your vet may suggest another pain medication.
