We just made the hardest decision that faces a loving owner, on Mar 13, 2008 we had to put our girl to rest just days short of her 11th birthday. We are of course blaming ourselfs, why didn't we see this coming or what could we have done differently could we have saved her. After all the lab work and x-rays came back the vet told us that we could risk taking her to a special hospital and spend thounsands of dollars on her treatment but she wouldn't make it because she was in total body failure. He told us that it was just a matter of days and she would sufficate to death so we couldn't have her in anymore pain and decided to do what we felt she wanted. She was such a strong and loyal member of the family never even hurt a fly even when in pain she wouldn't nip or whin she was just holding on trying to make sure her pack would be all right. This is the greatest pain i have ever felt i feel like part of my heart is missing.
