He doesn't seem to be suffering, particularly...but then again, you know what he's like. He doesn't really show signs of much of anything, ever. He sleeps. He goes outside when forced. Sometimes he gets all nutty and plays for five or ten minutes, but that's not even every day. He loves me with a devotion that borders on annoying. But last night when I got up to get water or pee or whatever, I really did miss the click of doggy toenails on the wood...

He was very happy to get home, though.
