I too had an older dog like Sprite, his name was Duffy and I inherited him from my mother-in-law when she passed away in 1998. He died this past July at the ripe old age of 26!!! He was blind, deaf and had 2 strokes which I nursed him thru but he just kept on going like the energizer bunny. He had his days and nights mixed up and would sometimes bark all night unless you were where he could find you. I would take care of him all over again just to have him back. I have two other dogs though, an overweight 6 yr old corgi and a 12 yr old yorkie that has only 2 teeth and has seizures. I love them dearly and can’t imagine not being blessed with a dog in my life.
