Default Poochie anxiety~

Hi! I have had my 11 yo Doxie *weenie dog* to the Vet 3 X's in the past 2 wks and all bloodwork, etc is normal. The problem is, she starts in the night w/anxiety, shivering and wanting up and down off the bed. We cannot figure out what is wrong and the Vet thinks that she may have separation anxiety or a form of pet Alzheimers. (cog fog)

I am so distraught, as she's usually such a sweet lil thing and used to go to sleep at night w/o a problem. The Vet has put her on anxiety meds and she slept all day today, so I'm going to try giving it to her at bedtime. Poor thing~ we are all tuckered out, as it's like having a baby in the house. I feel helpless, as don't know what to do for her. She's never been hit or anything and both of the poochies are very spoiled. The 14 yo sleeps like a rock.

Has anyone else experienced this? Other than the nighttime probs, she's healthy. She's my lil furbaby.... Suggestions are soooo welcome.
