Wow, what a difficult six months this has been for my fur babies. We lost Duke, our Golden Retriever, 6 months ago to lymphoma. And this past Monday, we lost Sammy, our Pekingese, too.
Sammy was blind, possibly hard of hearing and his teeth were in bad shape, to the point that they were causing him pain and would need to be pulled. AND, he bit a very good friend that came over to visit. He wasn't always agressive, but given his health, we assume he was becoming increasingly confused and/or scared. On recommendation by our vet, and after much soul searching, we decided it was in the best interest of The Mess Maker and The Noise Maker, as well as the children and adults that come over to our home, to put Sammy down.
Sammy's been around about as long as The Household CFO has been...he became a part of our family just one month after getting married and was my original "baby". We're missing you, buddy. I hope you're playing, eating LOTS of dog treats and loving on Duke right now!
In loving memory of our second furry friend...
