Hello, today I lost my Coco..she was 12. She was a teacup yorkie and was playful as ever...very active. Earlier today, I saw her panting like she was choking on something even when not eating. I would massage her throat, gave her water, and a soft small chewy treat. All was fine. She would do the panting on and off, but was still her usual self....acting like my bodyguard following me all around the house. She laid down to take a nap, but noticed when I got up off the couch a few times she didn't follow me. That wasn't her norm. I called her name a few times, but Coco didn't budge. I checked her and she wasn't breathing and her eyes were half open with her tongue sticking out of her mouth. I also noticed that her tongue turned black when it was link earlier in the day. I'm so heartbroken. I don't even know what happened to her, but I know she knows she was loved dearly. She brought so much joy to so many people's lives. She was truly a blessing to have around. She will be missed. I had to have her cremated today. I'm so sad.
