Getting old

not me, the Beagle.

Momma Bear and I decided to take him to the vet to get x-rays. Turns out, my lil man has a few herniated discs in his back. The vet said that he was showing signs of a lot of pain and that he was very very uncomfortable. :( I feel awful for the guy. We also found out about some arthritis in his back leg from the x-rays but the vet said that beagles are so muscular that they typically don't even notice any pain from that. We were sent home with muscle relaxants and pain killers and orders for no stairs, up or down. She wants to see The Beagle back in a few days to check on him. In the mean time he's all wonky from the drugs. Poor guy.
