Location: In The Snow, AZ | I will be keeping Foxy and your family in my prayers. You will know what is right, when it's right. Hugs to you. I lost my guy four years ago to cancer. Feels like yesterday when we loaded him in the truck.

She's keeping him overnight. His temp was low-normal, and she could hear fluid in his chest. She's thinking heart disease. . . . She is gonna try to draw some fluid off tonight and will do blood work in the am. After the tests at least I'll know what I'm dealing with and can make an informed decision. He's always been such a good boy--my ex husband picked him and his sister up on the side of the road in 2004 to save them from coyotes---and he's been a wonderful dog from day one. I will not put him thru a bunch of pills or needles if he's not gonna be happy or feel good anymore. I won't be selfish and keep him here just for me. Please pray God's will and for Him to give me strength to make the right, loving, selfless decisions if it comes to that.
I thank each of you for posting---means the world to me to know I have such wonderful folks holding Foxy and my family up. . . .
Sounds like it could be congestive heart failure. My best buddy Rusty passed from it when he was 15. Hoping you get better news! They are here for such a short time but sure take up a big place in our hearts! |

 My Heart Be Happy

Location: Arkansas | This morning the blood work showed heart and kidney issues, but also an infection. She wants to do antibiotics and get rid of the infection so we can see what we have at that point plus see how he feels. I called at lunch because I was gonna go see him, but she said it might depress him watching me leave him again. . . . So of course I didn't want that. (Probably the only time I'll ever be missed that much in my life!) She said he had perked up some since the meds and she was giving him fluids. Called again at 4:30 and she said he was wagging his tail and holding his head up and eating good. Peeing more of course! But his back legs are weak, which I had seen happening the last week. I thought it was his arthritis worsening, but now I guess it's kidney related. Dr. Albritton said the kidney lays right on top of the muscles he uses to lift his back end up. . . I'm unfortunately learning stuff I didn't want to know. He's gonna stay a few days there to see how he feels from the treatments before I bring him home. (Hope I can stay away and not depress him! His sister misses him terribly; she sat in the yard tonight just staring towards the road. They've been inseparable for over 12 years.)
I will keep y'all posted as I know what's happening. And I will say this---to never have laid eyes on any of you, I feel blessed to have y'all on my side. Today when I'd just want to lay down and cry, I told myself nope cause I knew I had BHW folks on my side and praying. And that no matter what happens, each and every one of you were asking for the right thing to happen and for me and Fox to be ok. . . . That's strong stuff there my friends. |
