2fawngreys Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 We unexpectedly sent Bubba to the rainbow bridge an hour ago. He has had long-term neurological issues with his hind legs which have been under control since a March crisis with tramadol and prednisone. We came home from running errands today to find he had lost complete use of his hind legs, and decided with our vet, that his quality of life was not good and unlikely to improve. He was a big sweet goofy boy who had to be with his people. His racing name was Kelsos Irony and he came to us from Greyhound friends NJ just shy of 4 years old after recovering from a broken hind hock. we named him Beckett, but as soon as my son could talk he called him "Bubba" which fit him so much better. He was definitely a Bubba! We love him and miss him already. We're down to a one hound house for now, and will probably have to stay that way for a while. it's weird. Run fast and free my Bubba.
