Whether it was him comforting me, him telling me that he needed help, or him acknowledging that I had stumbled onto what was going on, or none of the above - I know he was in tune...

Yes, that thread is very heartbreaking, especially when you read it everyday and feel as if you've come to know the people and their dogs, but I know how comforting it is to have other people that share your feelings about an animal that you love so dearly and you will definitely find that here.

I believe your boy was in tune and trying to tell you something too. They are such amazing animals, and we are so fortunate to have their unconditional love. I do hope you receive positive news on Ben's results today. You both will be in my thoughts.
