  1. I'm so sorry. What a gap he will leave--but he also leaves so many wonderful memories to fill that gap. Godspeed Charlie.
  2. So, whining runs in the family too, does it? Two of Edie's nicknames are "whiny b****" and (my new favourite) "needy Edie". She also tends to look morose. Neither the whining nor the morose expression have much to do with how much pain her arthritic shoulder is causing. She also tends not to limp. The best cues to the amount of pain seem to be whether she: puts her full weight on it when she stands; wants to chase her ball during play time; flips out and races around the yard every few days; gritches at her sisters if they step too close to her when she's lying down; or hangs out in an empty crate. It was the behavioural stuff (the crate use and the gritching) that first tipped me off that she was in pain. That and the look in her eyes which I first noticed in a photograph. I think if she seems playful and happy with life, you're probably doing a good job with pain management.
  3. I am so very sorry. I hope she has lots and lots of happy and good days left.
  4. I'm thinking about you and Hannah today too. Hoping hard for the right answer.

    My Mariah

    I'm so sorry. Godspeed Mariah.
  6. Oh no. I'm sending all of the positive thought I can. And kisses from sister Edie.
  7. I'm sorry. I hope that the vet can develop a successful treatment.
  8. It sounds like she is doing really well. Keep up the excellent progress Mokka. More toast awaits!
  9. I knew it. She is Foxy's niece. Foxy's daddy was HB's Commander Also cousin to Edie and Piper, who are HB's Commander granddaughters. Not that it's a very exclusive club. Am sending all the positive thoughts I can from the whole crew. Just by-the-by, we have a lot of intermittent limpers here. I trust Hannah has just decided to join the club.

    Hogan

    I'm so sorry. Godspeed Hogan.
  11. Yippee!!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad he's home. He looks great! Cora wants to know if Vinnie would like to compare shaved bits.
  12. That's WONDERFUL! Way to roach, Canyon!
  13. Do you have stairs? My vet told me last week that dogs with vision trouble are often afraid of stairs. Fear/caution at night or in very low light are also associated with reduced vision.
  14. Here's hoping that it's all the fault of those dirty ears, or, at least, that she recovers quickly and carries on for a good long while yet.
  15. Yippeee!!!! Canyon: Enough with the drama, young man. We're on to your secret now. Just concentrate on getting better.
  16. I'm so very sorry. Alan was a handsome and special boy. Godspeed Alan.
  17. I'm so very sorry. Godspeed Jojo.

    I'm so very sorry. She was a gorgeous girl, and she had to leave far too soon. Godspeed Fifi.
