The doctor pushed the blood work and it's back and it's completely normal. We were basically told the only way we can possibly find out is post-mortem. We've made the heart wrenching decision to put him down, it's clear he's becoming miserable and he's rapidly losing mobility and weight. The only question is when... Emily is gone and doesn't know we got the results back. We don't want to pick her up then drive over right afterwards to put him down. We're all very upset. We still haven't even had a service for Nikki.

My heart goes out to you all.

Hiro was loved more in his short life than some dogs ever are.

I hope he leaves peacefully, so heartbreaking.

God, Laurelin, I am so sorry for you and your family. This is awful.

You know that you guys gave him several wonderful weeks that he may not have been able to have otherwise.
Please let us know how things go tonight, whatever happens, and how your sister is. =<

you have all my condolences, Laurelin...I am so sorry and I know you and your family will be made stronger by making this very very difficult choice.

How wonderful of you all to put the puppy's quality of life, at the forefront and to have gone to the huge lengths you have to give him every chance.

I'm so sorry. :( It's the hardest decision for any pet owner and it's so horrible to have to make it for a puppy, who should have had years of happiness ahead. :( (((hugs)))

Laurelin, I don't know how to express my sadness to you about the loss of this gorgeous puppy you all had such high hopes for, and who you love so much. It must just seem like a nightmare to you. All I can do is offer my support as you grieve with your sister and your family.

I agree - he is a special puppy, and I am so glad that you all are putting his quality of life first. It breaks my heart that you are going through this.....

And it may sound silly, but I'll ask Fred to meet him at the bridge when the time comes.
