What a lucky guy Hiro is to have come into your family. As you know, you have given him everything he could have hoped for. I hope he and Em have a peaceful last night together. My thoughts will be with your family tomorrow.
I'm absolutely sick for all of you. I can't imagine how hard it is to deal with all of this, let alone the fact that you just lost Nik. You'll all be in my thoughts and prayers.
What a kind thoughtful sister you are ! I'm sure this will be a rough night for Em and I will be thinking of you all tomorrow . Pass your tissues Doc !
This is so hard! He was so lethargic earlier but now he's playing and wrestling with the others. Sure thing in the morning he'll be doing poorly again... I wish it was a more clear cut decision!
I'm so sorry. It's never easy to let go of one you love, even when it's best for the dog. But in truth, letting one go with some dignity left intact and to a peaceful end is the most loving thing you can do.
Wow... I can only imagine how hard this is for you and your family. =,( *HUGS*
Hiro had the happiest life possible, and he was so loved in his short life. There is no doubt that you're making the right decision! You gave him much more of a chance at life than anyone would.
You'll continue to do what's right for Hiro, and when the time is right, like bubbatd says, you'll know. Blessings, tears, and hugs for all. Thank you for loving the little boy. Take care of yourself too Laurelin.
Major hugs... this is so heartbreaking. Hiro lived a great short life. No one could have chosen a better family for him to spend it with. Please give Em a hug from me. I know this is extremely hard on her. No matter what... I'm here for you guys.
It is but we don't know what's going on. The symptoms are totally different between the two and it's probably likely that they're not related conditions at all. Other than these two puppies, in the decades she's bred dogs she's NEVER had a thing like this happen. It's just our luck that it's happened to us not once or twice but THREE times over the years. We've lost Rosie, Harry, and Hiro this way. It's just not fair. Most people never lose a young pup and we've lost three through no fault of our own and we've never got answers on any of them. It just seems like a nightmare repeating over and over again. My first puppy, Jo's first puppy, Em's first puppy.... All unknown neurological problems.
This morning he's doing well and very alert. It's going to make the trip so much harder on us. We know it's not going to last and there's nothing we can do.
Hugs, I can't imagine what you and your family are going though. I have been watching these threads hoping so much for the best! I am glad he had so much love in his short bright life.
