> Over the last couple of months, she has gone crazy over food. She's always been a big fan;, but now it's become a real problem. She is constantly on the prowl for something to eat, getting into things she never paid any mind to before....cups sitting on the coffee table, the trash can, etc. In the last 24 hours, I've caught her pulling things out of the huge, 39 gallon trash can at least a dozen times. She kept getting up in the night and getting into it, and when I got home from running errands a bit ago, she'd completely pulled the thing over and trash was EVERYWHERE!!

> I've done some reading and it seems to fit with canine senility. Anybody experienced this with their babies? I'm calling the vet tomorrow and really hope there's some medication to help because I think we're both losing it at this point!Jammers, I am sorry that you're going through this situation with your pet. I know how worried we can be when our babies have problems.
Have you seen the veterinarian yet? Let us know. You are in my thoughts. Love, Pat
