I am so sorry. Having been down that road myself too many times I understand your shock, pain and disbelief that it's happening again. No words can describe our contempt for cancer or other illnesses that rob us of our loved ones. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.

Thanks eveyone.

It just progresses so fast, one day they are fine the next they need to go. Even when I first posted this I thought we might still have a few weeks left with him, but realizing how much discomfort he is already in (when his pain meds wore off)...

I didn't want to do this at the e-vet, but we may not be able to wait till or usual vet is open tomorrow.

 

We also lost a cat last year, loosing Jazz will empty the house of pets...

I'm so sorry. I understand the pain. I lost one in March (to OS) and one in November (to kidney failure).

 

OS can progress very fast. Morgan started limping on a Friday night and his leg broke Sunday morning. That's how we found out he had OS. That was 2 years ago. He had amputation and chemo and to my surprise, he has outlived the 2 younger dogs we had in the household. He's stil going, although a bit slower these days.

Words can't begin to tell you how sorry I am. It's so unfair that your time has run out so quickly. You're a wonderful grey parent for putting Jazz's well being ahead of the need to keep him with you longer. It's the hardest decision we ever need to make with our babies. Hugs to you and scritches to sweet Jazz. :grouphug

It's terribly hard to do, and also the most loving thing to do when your hound is in such pain. My prayers are with you... may Jazz transition peacefully, surrounded by those who love him dearly. :hope:bighug

I'm so very sorry. I know just how you are feeling.

 

I don't think Chance will last long. I looked him in the eyes this morning and told him to let me know. About an hour later he started to whine and stopped eating and drinking. I don't see any reason to prolong the suffering for him or for us. I think I'm going to see if the vet will stop by tonight and help him over the Bridge. Oh, I do know how your heart is breaking....my sincerest sympathy and condolences.

And to you and Chance too. Just a few more hours now for us.

When we lost Iowa the e-vet did something really nice for us, they made an impression of her paw in sculpty. Not sure if our normal vet does this so I bought some and just finished getting an impression of Jazzys' right front paw for remembrance.
