Can dogs get depressed like people do?
I think my dog may be depressed.

He used to be a happy dog but lately he just mopes around
and doesn't want to do anything.

Is it possible my dog is depressed?

Yes it's possible for dogs,cats and other animals to get depression like us humans.
Of course if your dog is getting older they slow down also.
