Hi Carolyn,
I am so sorry that you and your beloved Joe are going through this. This is one
of the most gut wrenching things we as animal lovers ever have to go through.
I think you will soon know in your heart what will be the best thing for the
both of you. I will say a prayer for both of you that God will ease Joe's
pain and give you strength to get through this difficult time.
Hugs,
Cindy

Hi friends,
My dog, Joe (some of you "oldies" know him) is dying. Two weeks ago, the vet
gave me the "news". My Joe is almost blind, can't hear and has tumors/lumps all
throughout his body. He's only 12 years old - I rescued him one day before he
was scheduled to die - He's a 26 pound corgie/staffie/doxie black and white
beautiful dog.
So sorry you guys, I'm crying. But, no amount of money will fix Joe. I think
he's getting worse quickly - more difficulty breathing, more coughing/choking;
limping even more, not eating and there's more.
What's strange is that he's become a "velcro" dog. Now, he just wants to be
near me - which breaks my heart. Is he trying to say goodbye? Is he trying to
say he hurts?
When the time comes-which sounds soon, what do I do?
Do I take him to his vet? Then what do I do with my Joe's body?
You all have unfortunately, been through this, but I haven't and I don't know
what to do.
Can you please help me?
Thank you,
Carolyn
Joe, Koby, Penny
