I never like waking any dog up with a start let alone an elderly dog. So we put a treat in front of them and wait for them to come round on their own. This is little 16 year old April. It was getting late and we wanted to take the pugs out for their last wee before bedtime. So this is how we go about it. Sometimes I've even lightly blown on the treat just to get the aroma in the air, and their little noses pick up on that. And once April was fully awake I gently lifted her up and took her outsid
