| JoeJoe Said Goodbye at 14 weeks. I haven't really been sure how to start this. Much less tell my current circle of friends and family. But at 14 weeks Saturday 20, 2011 11:48 pm my sweet little JoeJoe Bear left me. He hadn't been feeling his greatest the last few weeks and had been on antibiotics and a daily dewormer to treat the bleeding in his intestine but our little guy always tried to act like a normal playful puppy. He was always the smallest puppy wherever we went at only 1.3 pounds at 14 weeks but also the most sociable and friendly. Joejoe loved to take pictures and had just started to really play fetch. At 14 weeks old he knew how to sit, shake hands, lie down, & highfive. He was almost fully potty trained and he loved to wait at the door when he had to go, and would run straight to the grass to do his duty. When we brought him to his first puppy social for babies between 9 to 16 weeks old he spent more time with people cooing over him and taking pictures than actually getting to socialize with other puppies. He had the sweetest temperament and would plop himself on the bed next to me or the couch where ever we were. He only barked 4 times in the time that i've had him and he never ever whined. I spent the entire summer with him, everyday 24/7 only leaving him once with my sister for 2 hours while i went to the docters. I tried so hard to keep him safe, buying all the baby gates, making sure to pack his things the day before, and watching him where ever he went. I just wanted so badly for him to grow up already. I loved him more than anything in the world and It's insane to think at such a young age he has left me. I never thought i would ever have to post in this forum at least not for the longest time. But joejoe... my sweet little bear faced baby was struggling that night and as i rushed him to the nearest vet i could only think of all the reasons i needed him to stay. We we're at a friends house that night in Millbrae Ca and we had placed JoeJoe in her bedroom so he wouldn't cause mischief as i got his medicine ready and his late night snack. When i went back into the room my little bear was laying on his side shaking i carefully picked him up and faintly felt his heartbeat. He wasn't responding to his name so i jumped into my car and raced to the nearest vet which was 10 miles away in san mateo. My friend tried to do cpr when the heartbeat began to feel even fainter but when we got there an hour after the emergency vet took him from us they told us he was gone. He was gone... And the shock of it all is still in me. I haven't slept since then or left the room in my house. Haven't managed to eat yet or talk to anyone but my mom and the friend that was with me that night. I just always look for him. Checking my watch constantly remembering the schedule we had set. thinking this was suppose to be when he had to take his medicine or this was when he had to eat. The past day was sad and a day of mourning. I still don't know how to tell all the people that had come to love him in the 6 weeks that we had him. I just miss him so much and hope he's found a better place where he can be at peace while I find my own. Rest in Peace my little JoeJoe Bear. |

| I am so, so sorry for your loss of your little JoeJoe Bear. You must be devastated and in so much pain right now. JoeJoe sounded like such a smart little boy to have learned so many tricks and to be almost fully potty trained at 14 weeks old. I'm so sorry. Rest in peace, JoeJoe.

| I'm so sorry for your loss. That is much too young! What was the cause of his death? Just wondering if maybe your tragedy could help someone else.... |

| What a terrible thing to have happen to that baby!! Sometimes I think too much medication is to blame. Taking "daily" worm medication on top of an antibiotic is just way too much for one so young. I know your pain must be so terrible and prayers will go out to you and others who loved him.
