They let me come in and hold her at which time they told me the eye was to badly damaged to be saved and was way to swollen to go back in the socket so they stiched the eye closed. He also said that a dog like Candy has no place in a home with her getting more and more aggressive and he felt she needed to be euthunized. So, they gave me some pain medicine and antibiotics for Harley and I brought her home. My husband and I discussed our options and felt it was best to follow the vets advise and put Candy down. So, my husband took her up to the vet. We called the carpet cleaners and explained the situation and they came right out to clean up all the blood. I than called Harley's groomer and she came right over to bath her up so she can now rest and heal and learn to adjust to only having one eye. She has been eating really good and is laying on the sofa enjoying all her visitors and attention. We will be crying for a while for the loss of our Candy. She was a rescue that was a mess when she came into our lives and I spent a lot of time working and loving her to gain my trust. I do animal rescue and I have goats that I tend to. It was Candy and my time together and her favorite time of the day. It always made me feel better knowing she was there to let me no if someone was coming.

I am so sorry for all you have been through. RIP Candy. Im sorry they couldnt save Harleys eye.

I cant believe your vet told you to do that, I would think rehoming her as an only dog would of been best. I mean taking in rescues I see dogs starting fights over food all the time.
