GreyhoundNan Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 (Jeany is the tiny blonde all the way on the right.) I am still not really believing I am writing this. The animals arrived here in the UK last Thursday, and I arrived the following Wednesday. Sometime over the weekend Jeany took a bad fall down Simon's staircase, but didn't seem to be too badly hurt. We found out by the day I got here, however, that she had shattered her front left shoulder. We left her at the vet Wednesday night. Jeany couldn't stand up at all this morning, so they did another xray on her back end this time. Apparently she'd dislocated her back left leg at the hip as well, and the damage was pretty severe there. The vet felt, and I agreed, that with the now reduced chance that J would come through this with little pain and the growing chance that she would have to lose that leg as well, that the kindest and most merciful thing to do was to let her go so that she would be free of pain. I'm not really sure how I feel now. I've gotten over the hysteria that my best friend Leah heard in the background I'm sure when Simon called her. I just feel kind of dull and cold. Please keep Simon in your thoughts too...this is the first pet he's ever lost and he feels very strongly that it is his fault. Jeany came to me nine years ago, afraid and spooky and unwilling to come out of her crate. She loved her first Daddy Scott, and as animals are able to do so much better than humans, she ignored his faults and was devoted to him. When we left him she grieved, but she happily took on her new role as den mother. She was a definite presence anywhere she went, and she fell so head over heels in love with her new Daddy Simon that she hardly knew I was there any more. Jeany had lots of crushes...her first was BoBo and then Profile. I think it lessens the pain for me to think of the three of them together again...her tiny little prissy head in between her two giant brothers. After her brothers she was quite smitten with a boy in her obedience class called JD...she failed because she paid more attention to him than anything else. I think her favorite in recent time though was Unka Ray. When I can bear to look at them, I will post some of the pictures I took right before we moved of J on the couch, front paws wrapped around Ray's head. Bless him, he could have gotten up but I think he liked her too. Jeany was first and foremost a diva princess who could get her Daddy Simon to spoon feed her WATER and her Auntie Janet to pull chicken skin off raw chicken for her, then hold the whole yucky mess for HRH to decide which bit she wanted first. But most of all, she was my precious babygirl, my Jeany Bean, and Simon's Jeany Beany Meany Queenie. She was Auntie Leah's Little One, Daisy's babysitter, and Hunky's soulmate. He seems to know...he let me hold his head in my lap for a long time. I'm not sure I have any heart left to break.
