Damn Dog...
2 weeks ago our 16 year old Boston Terrier went to the Vet with a bad cough. The vet told me "She is an old dog and they do not recover from Pneumonia very well. It is your call here. We can put her down and end her suffering, or we can give her some real strong anti-biotics and hope for the best."
I was a Selfish Bastard and opted for the twice a day shots.
The cough got better but she did not seem to be recovering very well.
Yesterday, she went to the vet for some blood work and I was told her Liver and Kidneys were both failing. There was no choice.
I will pick up her ashes later this week.
Memorial Holiday, My wife and I will take them to our Cabin by the lake and scatter them there.
She liked the lake a lot.
The thing I just can't figure out....
I spent most of yesterday afternoon with wet eyes, woke up this morning with wet eyes, and even now, my eyes are wet...
I am 40 plenty years old, been married 22 years, have 2 sons 20 & 17.
How did this little dog that weighed in at a whopping 15 lbs do this to me.
She is missed.
