Gees, that's awful, Stui and Luvdids, commiserations, far too young.
And skids, I'd be visiting the breeder, far too many dodgey unscrupulous breeders out there. I'd want compensation, as the mum of a dog with congenital heart failure, the tests and ongoing medication ain't cheap.
If the dog was sold for breeding, then they should have been vet certified. Poor dog.

It's a recessive gene. Both parents were checked, I saw the certificates.

My dog was being a bit weird on Thursday and throwing up. Took him to the vet who said at very least he's dehydrated and needed to stay in on a fluid drip over night. He didn't really improve over the next few days so they did some tests yesterday. Diagnosis - inoperable stomach cancer.
So we brought him home yesterday to spend one last night with him. Today we decided we couldn't bare to take him back to the vet so arranged for them to come to the house this afternoon so he could go to sleep on his favourite spot.
This is honestly almost the hardest day of my life. I know we made the right decision for him, but it's so $£$%^%%$ heartbreaking! He was only 4, still a baby. My baby. It's so unfair.
**** cancer.

RIP puppy.

So sorry Mandy
Such a nice thing though, to let him go to sleep in his favourite spot instead of a sterile vet surgery.

Friend of mine passed away, we were talking she was feeling sick, she said goodnight and then I found out she'd died. She has been through a lot, she had a stroke that had her stuck in a wheelchair, she had other health stuff. She put on a brave face though, she was doing water therapy heading into Christmas and was going to get back to it soon.
she had asked me to marry her last year, but she got back with her ex that weekend, it seemed she always wanted to be with him but he didn't her but I was always the friend for her.
She was a year younger than I am, still cannot quite believe it.
