 Rest in Peace ... Little Max
This week was one of the hardest weeks EVER for me. I recently had a little of yorkshire pups (only 2). The female was strong as the male was weak. He couldn't get milk (wasn't strong enough to latch on) and was tube feed for a week after birth. Only to catch Pneumonia.
I made the toughest decision of my life after 5 hours of him gasping for air. I took him to FIVE doctors to have them all tell me there wasn't anything they could do for he was too little. He was 3 oz. I made the decision to put him down for fear of him suffering. When he was tube feeding it just came back up his nose and felt like I was drowding him. Then when not giving him food - felt like I was starving him. It was a win lose situation.
So rest in peace little Max. You made it 11 days longer than anyone expected. I cry every day knowing you didn't get to open your eyes and see all the love around you. We love and miss you dearly.
