It sounds like your dog is getting older and older dogs just like humans get arthritis. You might want to get some antiinflamitory meds from your vet to help with this.

I agree with a vet visit. I want to add, dogs are quite sensitive to their owners' mental state. I have seen cases of people worrying their dog sick. If you are fighting depression, it will affect your dog.

My 14 year old poodle makes moan/groan type noises sometimes, generally just as he's falling asleep. After a thorough examination at the vet, he was given a clean bill of health. Our vet told us that commonly elderly dogs do this, and that he's fine. A check up is always a good idea whenever there's unexplained changes in your pet's behavior.
