Sigh... bad night in the Amos household.
Got home and found one very sick great dane. Took her to the vet and it doesn't look good. Part of her stomach is in the wrong place, liver and kidney tests are bad. Basically not good. She's on an IV at the doggy doctor tonight and we'll see in the morning. But she's an old girl - 10- so I have to face the facts. She prolly won't be coming home..... sigh.... Very sad in the Amos household tonight. : (
This just SUCKS!!
We have had her since Spencer was a baby. He has always had her with him. He takes care of her, feeds her, picks up her stuff, grooms her, etc. She is his dog and he is devastated.
sigh.... : (
I know it's part of life, but it's still hard to say goodbye, and even harder to watch your childs heart break.
Please send healing vibes to one sweet great dane named abby. There is still a bit of hope, so I'm clinging to that little bit.
It's so hard when you are at the vet and you feel like you are putting a price tag on your beloved pets life, but I have to face facts. She is an old girl and the xrays looked horrible. So they have her on an IV to re-hydrate and will do an ultrasound in the morning. Also some more blood work since the numbers were off the chart. I want to at least try to save her if I can, but I will not let her suffer. The worse part may be deciding if I should pay to have them operate- something I have the feeling will happen. Like I said, at what price do I say ok and when do I just let her go. Such a hard decision... Man this just sucks!
Please send some vibes our way if you would. I think the whole family needs them.
Thanks
