Question
Hi there, my Bichon Skittles is 16 years old! She is turning 17 this July and is in great shape. She even runs around like a puppy with my other bichon that is 11. She has lost most of her hearing but she still has quite a bit of vision. She is very happy most of the time. My mom gives her a baby aspirin when she seems uncomfortable. We also have glucosamin (sorry about the spelling!) pills that we give her on occasion. If there are any other vitamins that you can recommend I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Answer
What a wonderful age she has reached so far, and long may it continue. I would give her cranberry tabs (1 per week ) for ultimate urinary tract health,  some chondratin to go with the lucosamine and some fish oils to stem any alzheimers or dementia.

Apart from that she is doing great , kepp up the excellent work.
