Hi and welcome!
Sounds like dementia to me. Yes, panting and pacing are a common symptom. If she looks disoriented, then it definitely is dementia. My boy had...
How is the puppy? I hope he passed it by now.
I am so sorry for your tragic loss. My dog was hit by a car 7 years ago (it was tough but he survived) and I can feel your pain. Try not to blame...

Oh my goodness, if I pay for something, I choose. Of course the pedigree contains all the information you need. If you haven't seen the parents...
By looking at the puppies' parents, this smells like a backyard breeder to me. Is the breeder registered? Does he show his dogs? Any reason he...
Bad arthritis, where? Is he on any medication/supplements? What issues does he have? 6 is really young for "bad" arthritis.
That vet should be arrested.

I am really sorry for your loss, it's tragic.
