Doc came out last night and sent Jo Jo over the bridge. I came home early and we sat together, ate special treats and I petted him for a few hours. Then Doc came and I had to leave because I didn't want Jo to know anything was wrong. Hubby held him and petted him until he passed.
Jo Jo hadn't been able to leave his bed since Saturday morning. Even with our help he couldn't' even stand.
the guy from the cremetoriuim came by amd picked him up lats night.
The lamp is one of those shop lamps from Home Depot. They work well.
Gracie hasn't been eating much since Jo Jo is gone. She misses him. She has seizures when her blood sugar gets too low from not eating and has two this week. I started giving her canned dog food and putting chicken stock on her kibble. It seems to be helping, she is eating more but still not enough.
I am so sorry about your dog. It is so hard to watch our beloved friends decline and know what is coming. Even harder to deal with what we must do. 2 years ago, our Labrador of almost 14 years passed away just days before Christmas. I posted it on BYC and someone posted the link to Somewhere Over The Rainbow. This is the most hauntingly beautiful rendition of the song I have ever heard. I played it over and over, tears streaming down my face. I hope this is a comfort to you as it was to me.
