 Yorkie sibling update
Hi,
First, thank you all so much for your support and well wishes.
When I came home from work yesterday, my husband told me our girl had a terrible struggle to breath all morning. She had been coughing and gasping for breath. Just horrible! He took her to the vets and had her put to rest. I was so relieved to learn my baby was no longer suffering, but so sad to know she was gone.
We were wrong about not being allowed to bring her body home so he did. He presented brother with her body. Hubby said brother sniffed and licked her, then suddenly jumped back and tried to get away from her. Hubby said it was like something clicked within brother that she was dead; he understood.
We were so concerned about brother last night, but we put him in his crate with their bedding and he slept through the night without a peep. He was so quiet I was afraid maybe we had lost him to grief but he greeted us with a wagging tail and kisses this morning. We'll continue to closely monitor him and set up new routines with extra snuggles. |
