Teddy
1998-2011
Last night, Teddy had several really bad seizures - the last one after midnight, after I was asleep. The first seizure was bad enough that it affected his bad hips and made him unable to get up. It was quite obviously the end, so my father took him to the vet and had him put to sleep. I think it was the right choice, and while I'm so sad that he's not here anymore, I'm glad he's not lying on the floor in pain anymore.

Date: 2011-10-30 06:36 pm (UTC)In my own belief system they never really leave us. I miss every dog and cat (and other) I've had in my life. I have three dogs and three cats now. Every time a new one comes into my life (these days anyway) I have this moment when I know the young healthy creature I'm lovin' on will eventually age and have to go. And still they come into my life because that's what I do.
When we moved into this house I was struck by the weather vanes on the roof. There's a rooster over the garage/shed but there's a hunting dog over the house. The first time I saw it I was struck by how much it resembled my first dog. I teared up. Buddy's been out of my physical life for 53 years and I still teared up. Maybe he's watching over me as he did when I was a baby.
**hugs** is all I really meant to send.
