Possibly In any case I'd just give her more attention, walk her more, and do everything you know to more often with her and if she hasn't perked up in 2 weeks the best thing todo would be take her to the vet. Sometimes if a dog has lived a long time with another dog and one dies then they can go in "animal depression" and can be given special tablets for it. Or mabey a new baby in the house-hold needs alot of attention and the dog is feeling left out, the best thing todo is sell her if you know you can't both look after a dog and a new born child.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
