answered question 12/3/2008 My 12 Year Old Dog Is Panting, Pacing, And Crying Every Night. She Only Wants To Be Outside, But I Don't Want To Leave Her There All Night. Can Anybody Help Me With What Could Be Wrong With Her? Accomodate your dog with a doggie door, I don't think anything is wrong. With a door he oshe will have the option to be in or out and will be happier.
