  1. I have had sooooooo many on-line comments from people, "Do you dogs EVER stand up????" 20 hours of sleep a day would be the norm here, mostly upside-down

  3. I add 4 ounces of boiling water to 1 tablespoon of Olewo carrots, stir a minute until mixed, cover the container, and give 1/3 of it the next 3 mornings. I do not refrigerate. Been giving it to Facebook for around 2 years.
  4. So very sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you.
  5. I hope this is OK to post. I will find this helpful. Modified Mourner’s Kaddish (Transliteration and Translation) Most Jews who were raised reciting the Mourner’s Kaddish at a loved one’s death or yartzheit find great comfort and release in saying the prayer, especially in the company of others. It felt very important to me to be able to say the Kaddish when my pets, and then service dogs, died. However, the standard form of the prayer refers to “all of Israel” (all Jews), which felt neither inclusive of non-human animals nor of people I was mourning who were not Jewish. I recited it anyway, but I wanted a better way. Several years ago, when my cat, Ferdinand, was dying of cancer, I asked a friend who knew Hebrew if there might be a suitable replacement. She came up with a phrase that translates roughly to “all of Creation” or “all G-d’s creation,” which I now use in all situations. The transliteration (pronunciation) of the blessing is below, followed by its translation into English. I regret that I cannot provide it in Hebrew, but neither my keyboard nor my brain are up to the task! Mourner’s Kaddish (Modified) Yitga-dal v’yit-ka-dash sh’may raba, v’yam leech mal-chu-tay, b’alma deevra chi-roo-tay, b’chai-yay-chon uv-yo-maychon, uv-cha-yay d’chol bayt yishvay tehval, ba-a-ga-lah u-viz-man kareev, v’imru oh-meyn. Y’hay sh’may ra-ba m’va-rach l’olam ool-ol-may ol-may-yah. Yit-bar-rach v’yish-ta-bach, v’yit-pah-ar v’yit-ro-mam, v’yit-na-say v’yit-ha-dar, v’yit-a-leh, v’yit’halal sh’may d’kud sho b’richu; l’ay-la min kol bir-chatah v’shee-rata, tush-b’cha-ta v’ne-cheh-mah-tah, da-a-mee-ron b’alma, v’imru, oh-meyn.

Mourner’s Kaddish (Amended) — An English Translation May it be magnified and may it be sanctified Your great name in the world you created according to your will. May the world establish and fulfill in your life and in your days and in the life of all creation soon and near in time and say, Amen. May your great name be praised forever, and ever and ever. May it be praised and may it be blessed and may it be glorified and may it be upraised and may it be elevated, and may it be honored and may it be exalted and may it be extolled, the name of the Holy One, Blessed Be, beyond all words of praise, words of song, words of blessing, and words of comfort that are uttered in this world, and say, Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all G-d’s creation; and say, Amen. May G-d who creates peace in the celestial heights, create peace for us and for all creation; and say, Amen.
  6. Each dog (close to 90 pounds) was upside-down within 24 hour of coming to me. And they stayed that way.
  7. In Florida, the vets have a sign posted showing the FL statute that says medications can't be returned for a refund. So very sorry for your loss.
  8. So very sorry for your loss
  9. So very sorry for the loss of your sweet girl
  10. There are many things to look into prior to a decision. Overall health, how the lungs look, how he does when getting medical attention. Bone cancer is very painful. A fracture, depending on where it is could be very painful. I don't know what your "short time" means, but timely care for him is what needs to be done.

  12. With Taylor, an 85 pound front right leg tripod from age 6 to 8, walking always "looked labored" to me on a walk, but it didn't slow him down. When he needed to rest, he would stop and his front leg would be right in the middle. Plus there were always people who wanted to pet him, hug him, tell him what a good boy he was. Running and spinning and leaping was the way he mostly got around my big back back yard. He never slipped or fell. He was a strong boy.
