heartdogs Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 :gh_run2Run free sweet girl!! She was 7 years 9 months young Yesterday evening Laura called to say Ivory was bleeding from her nose so I told her to call the vet as that couldn't wait. She called me back in a few minutes to say the young vet said they no longer do emergency after office hour calls & she should take Ivory to a emergency vet office aprox. 50 miles away. I told her to call the vet Jerry uses for his cattle & Jeff said he would be at the office in 20 minutes so off we went. As Laura was filling out the papers to have him check Ivory we asked how he would put her down & he said he used a shot in a leg vein & he asked why we wondered so Laura told him the Joe ( the younger vet) always just gives a shot straight to the heart & since we always hold our dogs as they leave we couldn't deal with that. Jeff was horrified & said no way! He was so gentle as he gave the shot & made sure she had run to the bridge. We knew this time was coming as she had cancer in her spleen but it was way too soon! Ivory was the most beautiful Ivory colored girl with perfect black eye liner. Her nick names were beautiful or mouth as she barked more than any other grey we've ever had & her bark was very high pitched. Sure will miss this girl & I'm sure Bandit will miss his beautiful sister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawthorn Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I am very sorry to read this; she was much too young. Rest in peace, Ivory. Quote When a relationship of love is disrupted, the relationship does not cease. The love continues; therefore, the relationship continues. The work of grief is to reconcile and redeem life to a different love relationship. ~ W Scott Lineberry Always Greyhounds Home Boarding and Greyhounds With Love House Sitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
