Can you talk to the group you got him from. Maybe they can help you. Is he under a Cardiologist care? Prognosis? Second opinion with another Cardiologist? How hold is your grey? Not sure where you live but NJGAP MD's are really experienced. Give them a call. Good luck.

50+ here. I was thinking the same, right now I am contemplating getting another grey. Thinking it might be difficult taking care of someone else at this time. I have responsibilities of my mom, aunt. But on the other hand, my pleasure is taking care of Lou, and life is to short!!! But I really would love another grey. Anybody else going through this?

My PAXX was diagnosed with osteo last year. She was only 5 years old. After the diagnosis, it was a world-win. Time goes so fast. Vets diagnose, they make suggestions. Refer you to specialists, they make their recommendations. You feel unsure, confused. What do I do? Amputation, drugs? My decision to let PAXX go to the bridge was when she could not get comfortable one night. The following day I laid down with her on her bed, stayed with her all day, petted, talked and told her how much I loved her and how she changed our lives. I just new she would not be a candidate for amputation. Like my previous dogs, I make the commitment to be their at the time of the bridge. She went peacefully and is now in a better place. Everyone has a different story.

Much information is given on Circle of Greys and Dr. Couto, mabyPhilly can send the x-rays electronically. Keep us informed and good luck.

Good luck tomorrow, hope you hear good news.

Sending our thoughts to you at this time.

Its not fair, so sorry for your loss and welcome back.

Lou has been getting these red sores on his belly, they disappear with Cortaid. However, they return and I believe it might be from him laying in the grass. Fleas??? They present with a red circle and look like a blister. These pics are of his lower hind quarters, inner thighs. Any diagnosis or ideas?

You are very brave, take care of yourself Lady is at peace

My heart sinks when I hear of another pupper having cancer. Refer to Circle of Greys, a great support site. Good luck.

I am sorry for your loss. It is always so hard.

OH, No MacDaddy, Lou ( TK) will miss u!!! And who's going to transport my next pup???? Good luck and lucky for the next group who has your love of greys Joan and Lou

A wonderful tribute to a regal guy. So sorry you are going through a rough time. PAXX will guide Dave and show him the ropes.

Willow was a very lucky girl. She was loved unconditionally. So sorry for your loss, I have asked PAXX to greet her and make her feel comfortable.

Hi my sweet girl. We miss you and we want you to know you are always in our thoughts. We hung up your stocking for Christmas so you can share in the fun. Run free and remember we love you.

PAXX left on Father's day, 2006 - miss her terribly. Diagnosed with OS and happened very fast. Love ya my sweet little girl.

I am so sorry, you did the best you could. take care of yourselves.

How regal! A beautiful tribute to a beautiful hound. You are dedicated to your hounds and they are so lucky. I am sorry for your loss.

I received PAXX's ashes on Monday. I find comfort knowing she is back home. I still tell her "bye, be a good girl" in the morning when I leave for work. (good thing I am the last one out the door)

I am so sorry, take care.

So sorry for your loss, to many pups going to the bridge.

So sorry, Volunteer is with so many angels

So sorry for your loss, PAXX is there to greet her

I must return to work today, and I am in a fog. The unfairness that our beautiful puppers become angels and we are still left mortals with all our responsibilities!!! Thank each of you for you kind words. During my time with PAXX, I keep on running to the computer to get me through my limited time with her. It helped so much to read the encouragement and felt like there was a million of people in the room with us. I was able to be strong on my decision and keep PAXX happy, and relaxed until her transition. I will be participating in Greytalk as so I can continue to help, comfort anyone who is facing this now. However, we must not stop researching, funding, praying that this dreadful disease is stopped for humans and our beautiful babies.

PAXX is running free and pain free from this horrid bone cancer. She was a brave girl up to the transfer of her soul to the bridge. I know she will be giving all her friends hell and still chasing small white or black doggies. PEACE MY ANGEL You are so missed but remembered.
