I'm not happy with the vet we were using, $4000 later on Kia we had to have her put down. Just a devastating story. Sebastian has been with me for five years. He is current on his shots and his teeth are beautiful, had them done a few months ago, he is neutered of course and has his hair done regularly. I honestly can't take another diagnosis of one thing only to have something else take him out. With Kia we were treating cushings like crazy (I might add I would have lost her earlier if it hadn't been for some of the ladies on this site, she would NOT eat and the pills for cushings made her sick, just a mess really, anyway<) we finally found out after I insisted on a sonogram that Kia had a rock in her stomach!!!! The surgery by that time was just to much for her and she never pulled out of it, couldn't come off the IV. I can't take another mess like that with Sebastian. If its him time I want him to go with the love and respect he deserves, not just treated to death. I'll find another vet I guess and take him in tomorrow, he's doing the same today, just tired, he's eating soft dog food, I give him small amounts every few hours and he is drinking fine, pooping ok also, just very tired. Thank you all so much....

Hi Susan,
Just seeing your post. So sorry you are going thru this with Sabastian. Hope you've been able to nurse him back to health. How is he doing? Were you ever able to take him into see the vet?

You gave him a wonderful life taking him in at that age and you probably gave him his best last 5 years.

remember that all dogs go to heaven (sorry my fav movie from childhood!) and he's no longer in pain.

I'm sorry for your loss but always remember & cherish the fun you two had together <3
