He is not in pain yet, but when he gets to that point, we will have him put down. Right now, he just enjoys his naps next to my husband and/or the cat or the safety of his crate. From what I know of DDRR it would be the ideal place for us were things different.
Dilly, I didn't realize your dog is almost 17. Of course DDRR wouldn't be of interest to him. He absolutely deserves his quiet time with the people he loves.
