Well, I think the only reason Im posting this here is that somehow I think it might make me feel better. Maybe not, it feels a bit lame realy, but I hope it feels better.
My mom had two yorkie dogs, girl 7 and the boy 6. My mom is retiring next month and was looking forward to spending the days doing yard stuff and lovin on the dogs. Her children, you know how that is.
6 months ago, Teddy had a small bump on his back to the side. It grew fast and the docs cut it out, huge scar but it was cancer and a rare cancer especially for yorkies, mostly found in boxers. Sadly he gave the dog 7 months to 1 year or so. Very reputable doc and an attitude with the heart and professionalism you could only dream of. Well its been 6 months.
Last week they found under his right front leg rib area a mass, within a week it was almost softball size, this entire time he has bounced off the walls like he was the healthiest dog in the world. We thought he was gonna just be like a fluke dog that beat cancer or got lucky you know. By last night he couldnt stand on that leg, already started thowin up at night, would just stand wondering what the hell was wrong, he seemed so sad. Vet called mom today and said they should put him to sleep today unless she wants to wait it out but its getting worse each day . Though he looked happy today, he couldnt walk much and was in a lot of pain from the mass.
Anyways, for my first time, though I dont live with my mom and my dog is 13, Ive never had to take a dog you loved to the vet and have this done. Her and I and my step dad stayed in the room and my mom held him as he passed. My mom is a mess, I mean bad. The woman who will move a bug out of the walkway so it dosnt get stepped on wants to know why this is how she is re payed, as smart as we are we know better, but I let her say it and know that feeling, Im not sure if holding them while they pass is realy that good for the future of your sanity, I just hope and pray that she heals from this. My heart is broken and she is in a state that no person would wish on anyone, anyways, Im not looking for replies, just keep her in your prayers or thoughts. We all go through it. When its this young its harder, and this fast, but he lived like a King, a scaredy cat king but he was spoiled and loved beyond words.
