Good Bye Ms. Penny - 12/31/16 04:52 PM

As most know Penny has been sick with multiple Liver Shunts for a while. After hopes faded last night with her not eating and throwing up multiple times and then not eating today and pooping white we made the decision to put her down. Our vet met us there and Penny went very peacefully. Of course I cried like a big ol' blubbering fool. Still wile typing this I am in tears. Loved that little girl. Gone at 1.5 years of age. Genetics is the cause. Nothing we could have done other than take her to Texas A&M and spend 15k and she would only have a 5% survival chance. Just couldn't do it to her. Bye Bye precious little girl.

Sorry for your loss. What genetic problem causes that? How was she bred?

She had multiple shunts... too many to correct and have a good chance at survival.

She came from North Carolina. I don't have the exact breeding right now.

Yep Chet. She was turning the corner in her training and now I will never see the fruition of her hard work. I could see it coming though. Hate losing them anytime when they are keepers.

Dang Bobby, sorry you had to go through that. Don't be like me and wait 3 years to talk yourself into another dog. Do it ASAP. Sure wish I would have.

I got a deposit on a female now. got to go to iowa to get her in a a couple of months. Thanks Lane. My male is lost as a goose without her. I knew I needed to replace her. He has been moping around for 3 weeks now and has not barked once since she has been gone.
