My Bijon is not eating and is walking funny! Help!?

About two weeks ago, I bathed my 10 year old Bijon, Ralphie. He hates the bath, but loves the blow-dry. I used a topical flea drop on him (the same one I've used before - vet recommended. Since then, he has virtually stopped eating (unless I hand feed him and then it's just a bit), walks kind of funny, like he's drunk and has problems seeing. I took him to my vet and was told that it was just age. I have problems believing this. His stool is also very wet and he seems to be losing weight yet his stomach seems swollen. What can I do? He is my baby and I hate to see him this way.

Thanks to all,

Bret

    Find another vet and get him checked again that is not normal in a healthy dog and hope your dog gets better soon

    This may sound dumb but is there a chance u may have used cat flea drops? That could very well be what happened as this is an often scary situation. Double check, and bring ur pup to the ER or a speacialist..Dont wait ur dog sounds very ill. hope he gets better!

    I'd find a new vet! Ten years is not that old for a small breed dog.
