my dogs are my babies like most of us, but they are not as fragile as we like to think they are. Just love them and they’ll do what they need to do.

Well said, but sometimes along with ageing comes disease. Our guy has a neurological disease that affects his ability to walk. Balancing on stones is harder for him than balancing on grass or concrete. He's given us 13 years of unconditional love; I don't mind accommodating him right now.
