Purr for a D-Pet, please. :(

Not good. His kidneys were shutting down. Pretty much everything was
shutting down. TED said if not today, it would be soon, even if we did

anymore. He is at rest now, or chasing shrews and skwerls (and probably
happily snacking away on them) at the Rainbow Bridge.

I'm so sorry. Purrs for Max and for you.

Max, our aging dog (14 - 15 years old), is in poor health. For the past
week, he's been hurking up about 1/2 of what he eats... and he's gotten to
the point where he can barely stand (he's unsteady, and ends up looking
like Bambi did the first time he walked on ice - unless Max is on
carpeting, then he's OK, mostly). I think he might have had a stroke
during one of his hurking episodes, but he has lost a lot of weight.

He did eat 1/4 a small can of puppy food (more nutritious than adult dog
food) last night, and the rest of it this morning. Nothing's come back
up, but nothing's come out the other end either for the past 2 days. DH
is currently bathing him (he pee'd himself during the night) and we will
be taking him to TED for a check and consultation to see if this might be
"his time"

I am so very sorry that you and your DH have had say goodbye to Max.
I shall go at once and light a candle for his safe passage to the
Bridge. My fourpaws send you purrs and gentle headbutts for giving
Max the ultimate gift of love.

dollop of doggie drool

I'm so sorry, Nancy. I came too late to this thread to send purrs. I
guess it was time for Max. Many purrs of condolence to you and Jeff.
Thank you for taking Max in and making his last years happy and full of
love in a safe home.

Oh, I am so sorry. Hugs and purrs to you in this sad time, and gentle
hugs to Max on his way to The Bridge.
