Oh Michelle, that's good news about Buddy, but such sad news about
Gemma. The last loving, most selfless thing we can do, when their
quality of life is so sadly low, with no hope of recovery, is to help
them cross. Knowing that doesn't put much of a dent in the heartache of
having to say goodbye to such a good friend. My thoughts are with you
all. Bless you for being such a wonderful mom to her for all her
years. I'm so sorry.
Much love,
Nina

Buddy had her dental yesterday - she cried all the way there and made me feel
so guilty. She had a scrape and polish and no extraction necessary. Got her
tested for FeLV too whilst she was asleep. She was excited to get back home and
was scaling curtains within a couple of hours bless her.
On a sadder note I have to put to sleep my one of my girls (Gemma) on Thursday.
She is a 12 year old German Shepard crossbreed bitch who has had arthritis in
her front and back legs for a few years and had a CVA just before the death of
my Tidge in March this year. We got her through it with the vet but her legs
have been getting weaker as of late and have basically given up this week. Had
her from 8 weeks old - so heartbreaking but she is now getting depressed and
can't get to the toilet without us holding her back end up in a sling (bath
towel). Got to let her join her brother and Bramble and Tidge at the Bridge.
Michelle, Minstrel, Buddy & Angel Bramble
