Weight gain can slow down a dog, as can age. As this is a sudden decrease in activity level, you should definately take your dog to the vet. There could be an underlying medical reason she suddenly has less energy. Other common symptoms to watch for: - loss of appetite - external injuries (sprained muscles, sore spots) - changes in elimination patterns/consistency - changes in her stool - changes in her general mood Has your dog been gaining weight?
