Old Dog Whining and Scratching at Bedding?

My 17 yr old Yorkie has started scratching her bed every time she goes in it and whining whilst scratching. She has torn 2 beds by doing this and has never done it before. She has been doing it about 2 months now. She has also started pooing a lot, about 8 bits a day. Her backbone seems to be more protruding and she has flaky skin, but otherwise is happy, eating and drinking normally, and on the same food.

Your dog may have a medical problem but may be hiding it to some degree as most animals are wont to do. Please take her to your vet to check on all problems you have listed. She is an old (!) dog and deserves a healthy life, as do all animals.
