Hi Louise, I'm sorry for you're loss, I know how you feel, I had to put my dog to sleep on the 18/7/11 & It was the most heartbreaking thing that I have ever had to do, I sobbed like a baby for what seemed like a lifetime & I still shed tears for her she was my baby, she was fine on the friday morning & by 5pm that evening she started to walk & drag her back legs & this was so not like her, she was a border collie cross & despite her being 12 years old she was very active & hyper up until that evening, so I called the emergency vet & they examined her & said she had a fever & gave her a shot but she wasn't breathing properly & she was off her food and very lethargic & didn't want to go outside & usually she would be so hyper when you said the word out to her, but there was nothing, It was so unbearable to see her deteriorate like that, so the vet sent me home with her & told me to take her to her regular vet when it opened on the monday, so I took her there at 10am & At 12.40pm I got the dreaded fone call that made me nearly drop to my knees in a sobbing mess, They said they couldn't do anything for her and that she had a low blood count & she was anaemic & that she had tumours in her lungs and lots of other tiny tumours all over her & I was like what the hell, they said it was only a fever and now I have to say goodbye, I was beside myself with guilt and grief I could not believe this was happening, I am still suffering with grief, she was my first dog and my baby and I feel lost without her, (Sorry If this post was so long)
