My sweet Biscotti

Post by Marty »

is now sitting on her Daddy's lap again... :cry:

She woke me up with her barking last night at 2am, so I checked on her and found she couldn't seem to move or stand up. Called the Vet and we decided to wait until morning to bring her in (there are no emergency clinics here). Then I remembered a mobile Vet had recently opened, I had met her at Dr H's office before, so I called and asked her to come. I knew it would be easier on Biscotti to be at home.

The past month or so, things had been getting worse for her...arthritis in her back and hips, incontinence, lack of interest in food. I guess last night showed me it was her time...

She was 15...but will always be my crazy, nutty adopted and much loved Basset Hound in my heart...

Oh Marty! It is so hard to have them go. My thoughts are with you - and my admiration too, for doing all you could in such a loving and sensitive way. Biscotti was - and is - a very fortunate dog!

I'm so sorry Marty. I know having us say we know your pain doesn't stop the hurt even a little bit, but please know that all of us understand your loss. Try to remember the good times. I know she will be in your heart forever.
