Poor Bruice! This could be a serious neurological issue caused by age, a stroke, cancer, toxins, geriatric vestibular disease and more. I would have him seen by a vet as soon as possible as quick intervention may be necessary. Your vet may want to run blood work to make sure everything look okay. I hope this helps!
