https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Help-with-my-Golden-please/m-p/35260#M16501 <P>My 4 year old Golden Retriever, Max, is behaving very strangely.</P> <P>He went to the groomers on Wednesday - usual place - and was happy to go, and happy to see me when I picked him up. The night I get him, he's usually a bit tired, almost as if he's had a 'busy day', but perks up later on. Well this time he's been very strange since he returned.</P> <P>It's almost as if he on valium, and has been moping around since Thursday. He's been eating OK and doing everything else OK. I have felt him all over to see if he hurts anywhere and he doesn't appear to. I spoke to the groomer today to ask if she noticed anything strange about him on Wednesday, and she said he was just as normal - an absolute doll.</P> <P>He's coming to me almost like a dog who's done something wrong - head down and looking up at me sorrowfully. He's not interested in his bone either.</P> <P>Haven't taken his temp - will do that when DH gets home and I have help. Don;t want to rush to the vets since he is eating etc. and don't want a load of bloodwork done only to be told there's nothing they can see that's wrong.</P> <P>Obviously will go soon if he's not looking better, but can anyone give me any ideas of what this might be, or if I have a dog that's just 'off color'?</P> Sun, 27 Feb 2011 22:55:32 GMT UKgirlinNY 2011-02-27T22:55:32Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Help-with-my-Golden-please/m-p/35260#M16501 <P>My 4 year old Golden Retriever, Max, is behaving very strangely.</P> <P>He went to the groomers on Wednesday - usual place - and was happy to go, and happy to see me when I picked him up.
