My babies are getting old
I know the end is coming but sure wish I could keep her forever. There has never been a sweeter dog. It seems like just yesterday my son brought her home after answering a ad in the paper...100 dollars from a backyard breeder...best hundred dollars ever spent...we instantly fell in love with the breed. So much so we bought Maxwell from a reputable dealer in Meridian Mississippi...he will be ten in November and in just the last few weeks has shown signs of having trouble getting up...he is a BIG baby...130 pounds but solid as a rock. Loves to play and run but is slowing down now. He will be lost without Stella. All day Friday he looked at me and I could tell he wanted to know where Stella was....she had to stay at the vet all day for the glucose curve. It all seems to be moving so quick now...and God knows I wish I could stop the inevitable. I just pray I have the courage to do the right thing when the time comes. It's a little overwhelming at the moment and thanks for letting me vent. |

| Bless that brought a lump to my throat. Of course you will be sad when anything happens to them, but best to take days at a time, I have found this out as you get older, no point worrying about tomorrow. The tomorrow you are worrying about will soon be yesterday, and all is still well.
hugs to you xx |
| It does move fast, so much faster than we would like. I treasure every moment with my 12+ sheepie, knowing that what ever time we have together it is less than we have already shared. |
| Yes, it does move faster than we would like. My girl is 14-1/2 years old and every day I can see her hips/hind quarters getting weaker. The decision is there to make, only I need to convince myself when. I pray you have the strength to know when as well. |
| my entire heart goes out to you.. i have daytona 12 going through her pains and helping her up and my dolly who has cancer at age 11 so i know how it must be.. stay strong |
