Goodweed, so sorry that you lost Kaysee! We inherited two stray dogs besides 9 cats in our almost completed house in the countryside. Now it makes me cherish the dogs even more. Do take care of yourself and your family!

I planted a pear tree in honor of my doggy that passed away and somehow it still comforts me. I wish there was something I could do for you and your family. God Bless.
Goodweed of the North said:Again, I thank all of you for your support. It turns out that the blockage was still there. She just kept the food in his stomach longer. She continued to get weaker by the hour. I called the vet to see if I could get her in during my lunch hour. He said to wait until 2:15. I picked up the dog and my wife. It was the first time ever that Kaysee wasn't standing at the door with her tail wagging. Even last night she had strength enough to show joyous expectation. But today, she just had nothing left. It's a seven minute drive from our house to the vets. She died on my wife's lap on the way there. I carried her to the car, and then into the vets.
Kaysee is in a great place. She was always a loyal and great dog. We will miss her.

I was thinking the same thing. She was safe in your wife's lap where she could die peacefully rather than on table in the vet's office. I'm sorry about the loss of Kaysee.Snoop Puss said:Very sorry to read this, GW. I was really hoping things would work out OK for you. At least she was being cuddled by someone she loved at the end. Not much consolation for you, but I'm sure it was a comfort to her. I'll be thinking of you and your family.

He's right but I've now had a few and every minute of their too short lives has been a blessing to us. May your blessing be as wonderful as our has.{ Our current blessing is 13 and I'm hoping this tail to her life is as great for her as the early part of hers was for us.}
Now, do we get another and watch its short life? Are the blessings worth the pain? I don't know.
