Guest Greytmate Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 Yesterday we went to the vets to visit Bug. We were told because his immune system was down his whole body was affected by the poison. He had more than one sore spot and he couldnt move at all, he was in pain, and is heart was slowly stopping. The only humane thing to do was to put him down. The vets and his owners discused he was alloud to go home for one night and the vet would come back to their house and put him down. This morning i got to Bug's owners place early and his owners and I put Robbie, Special, Kindy and Bug on the back of the ute and we went down to the paddocks to let the four have their last run around together (the four of them are working dogs- with sheep and cattle). After 30 mins they said their last good byes. When Bug got back to the house Bug gave Moo and Bear their final sniffs and kisses. At 12:30 that after noon the vet arrived and we lay him down for his ever lasting sleep. Bug is sadly missed, Please send white lights to his owners and other greys who are having a hard time coping with out him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batmom Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 I'm so sorry. Tell Robbie, Special, and Kindy that they'll meet their friend again in the land over the bridge, where the sun is always shining, the grass is warm, and no one has any pain at all, ever. Hugs to you and all who knew Bug.

Guest Hee Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 I am so sorry to hear about your pupper. I just had to have my 12 yr old blue greyhound put down last night to what we think might have been either a spider or snake bite. His leg swelled 3 times and gangrene set in. My heart is aching & breaking so I know exactly to the very smallest ache what you are going through. My heart does have to smile though when I picture my big ole Broggie running with your Ted...I know they're having fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cyndifla727 Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 I am so very sorry about Bug. I know that your heart is broken and that he will be terribly missed. Try to keep in mind that he will be at the Rainbow Bridge, running free with other greys until you go to meet him, not much consolation now I know but maybe later on it will be a comfort. A foster in our group was bitten by a Brown Recluse spider at the kennel before he came to our group, it was an awful wound and his leg was unbelievably huge. He has made it through after some very scary days, his leg is starting to heal now after lots of agressive treatment and lots of rest and reccuperation. I knew spider bites could be dangerous but I had no idea they could be so deadly to our puppers. Thank you for sharing your loss with us and getting the word out about this very scary situation.
