Here is my frustration though...this is my second baby. My first one Rocky (7lbs) died at the age of 8 from meningitis May 2009, completely unfair still breaks my heart  I adopted my new little guy Gio (3lbs) in November 2010. He is almost 2 now and he was diagnosed with a possible liver shunt or MVD in September of 2010. We are exploring further with surgery to find if there is in fact a shunt (no shunt found in ultra sound). I am worried sick and cannot imagine going through this again and not to mention my vet bills are crazy!!!
I guess what I am getting at is are there any healthy babies that live long lives out there  ?! Sorry to vent but I am so frustrated, broken hearted, and worried sick I love my little guy more than anything, sad he has to go through this too... |
Our Frisco just turned 17 years old this past Valentines day....he's had his issues...but has always come thru. Prior to Frisco, we had Casey for 14 years....we did lose Bonkers (our first Yorkie) at 8 years during surgery....was also have currently have Codi who is 8 years old and showing no signs of slowing down....just say "din-din" and watch him go
