Richard - it is very hard. Currently the light of my life, Princess, is really struggling. She has very quickly developed acute arthritis in her spine and hip joints (we had x-rays Saturday) and she can hardly walk or, sometimes, even get up.
Dr. has put her on Prednisone, Tramadol and a series of 8 injections to help the joints but we, and he, fear she is going downhill fast.
She is 13 now and we know that it will not be long before we have a dreadful decision to make. I have been through this a number of times before, but this one is going to be the hardest. We think that this weekend's camping trip will be her last...
Here she is with you, me and Fella at the Colorado Old Fella Rally:
It is with a heavy heart and many tears that have to say that my darling Princess (Princess Braemar of Gunnison) went to the Rainbow Bridge this morning. She could hardly walk, was losing weight fast and had stopped eating. At 13 she had a great life and was very precious to us. She passed on in her favourite position - lying on the sofa with her head in my lap.........
