[yorkiemini]

In tears as I write this.......

You are in the midst of our worst nightmare. About 2 1/2 years ago I went through what you are experiencing now. My Yorkie, Pudding' was, and had been in renal failure for many years. She was also blind, but got around just fine in her safe environment.

She was 11 years old, hard started not eating well, slept most of the time,and became fairly lethargic. She would respond when I held her and talked to her and loved on her,but she no longer played or was able to overtly respond to here environment or me. The lab work started to indicate that things we really going down hill - next would be seizures, confusion and perhaps pain. Knowing she was at the end of the quality of her life and that there clearly was no light at the end of this very narrowing tunnel I made the decision. I am in the medical field and have been with Maya's they passed on, and frankly knowing that my Pudding' would never be in pain, never be unloved, or unhappy I gladly let her go with a smile. The smile was not for me -- it was all about her and where she was.

I think you will know when should need to do Paris that favor!

BTW I had also decided that it would be a long time before I would be able to give myself to another furbaby--- well 4 months later Cali came into my life Ina rather round about way and it was so right. I have always thought Pudding' sent Cali to me.

Oops this is too long.......but you know your fur baby better than anyone.
