He has coughing fits all day long and each breath is noisy. He wakes up in the night fighting for air. Some days he crys almost all day.
The vet said on 12/9 he wasn't in pain, and his heart sounded good and no fluid in his lungs.
Some people have said you can see it in their eyes, but Paris is blind.
It breaks my heart to see him like this, but how do I know it is time?
My eyes fill with tears to even think about it, but I want to do the right thing for my best friend. |
I just lost my Maltese Monique...just today...she seemed fine, then she started coughing and was gone...one never knows...she had been on meds for her heart, but was active and ate well..she was 13 Yrs. & 7 mos...I lost my Lucky at 13 1/2 in 2008...we are never prepared for the grief...ask your vet what is best...Lucky999
