Thank you everyone. I appreciate all your kind words and thoughts. I got the call from the vet a little bit ago. She has a tumor in the back of her mouth that is in a very difficult place to work with. They are unable to remove it. They are going to do a biopsy and send her home with some pain meds. We will find out the results in 3-5 days and have to decide what is best. My heart is breaking right now.

We are all here for you.... prayers and positive thoughts for you and Babie. Please keep us posted

I want to say thank you again. This has been a very hard day, with more hard decisions in front of us. Here are some pics of my B home from the vet, still very sedated and Guinevere checking out what's going on. She's not quite sure what's wrong, but there was some extra (gentle) love for the big dog and a little something for mom. It's amazing what they can sense!

So sorry to hear the answer was bad news. Sending prayers your way , keep us posted when the tests come back.

Awww ..I'm so sorry. We have been in your shoes too many times in our lives. We have loved so deeply so many wonderful critters. Dogs and cats. We've been lucky..like you to have the chance to love them into their senior lives. I've written about this here before but honestly, there is no greater love than having the love of an old soul. They teach us what is important..how to live..love and so sadly how to let go. I'm not saying its her time..but when it does come, you will know and she will know how loved she has been. We will be here and just know..we know what you are going through.

So sorry for the news, It's never easy thinking about one of our loved ones leaving us, but she will always be in your heart. I love the pics especially the one where little G was kissing big sister. It's like she knows she does not feel well.. Please keep us posted.

I just got the dreaded call from the vet. My B has cancer. I was some what prepared to hear this, but how do you really prepare.. My heart is breaking into a thousand pieces. I'd like to say this is the worst day I have ever had, but I know that day is coming soon - I have to do what is best for her. This is the most horrible decision I've ever had to make. I don't know how to say when it's time. She's herself in so many ways but I can tell it hurts her. I'm not sure how much of the pain is from the stitches in her mouth from the biopsy and how much she is just living with due to the tumor.

Oh no I am so very sorry to hear this. Please know that my heart and prayers are with you all

First of all..take a deep breath. I have been right where you stand now. Except I had no warning ..our Rottie started limping one day and since she had a long history of back problems, I assumed this was another. I even took her to her acupuncturist and when limp persisted...THEN to our vet. They took X-rays and there it was..glaring at me..bone cancer. No treatment available and my vet just said..don't wait too long,her bone will break because the cancer eats from inside out and you do NOT want that to happen. I was shocked. I was devastated. We have a family friend that is a vet. I called her just for some honest truths. Yep..my vet was right. She could have 3 weeks or a year. I decided it was up to me to make sure Ana never hurt. Nothing could heal her or my broken heart. Since she was on pain meds for her back,I was stocked up on what I needed. I read and decided I would watch her like a hawk. This horrible disease would NOT make her suffer. I would lie awake at night listening to her breathe and worrying about "when". Just 3 short weeks later..Ana wouldn't get up. We knew it was time. She never cried or showed that she was hurting.
After she had crossed the bridge, We realized just what a gift those short 3 weeks had been. We were able to just love her and make sure she knew how much she was loved. Many do not get that chance.

The thing I guess I want you to hold on to is not the sorrow..but the love. Spend this time enveloping her with your family. She will be one of the lucky ones,surrounded by her family and most importantly loved all the way across the bridge. If I can help..I am here.
