I can't believe that I'm writing this post. I'm devastated. Yesterday, I brought Zsofia to see Dr. Julia. Zso hasn't been feeling very well lately and I sensed that she needed to be examined. Now, I'm writing her epataph. After a thorough exam with blood work and x-rays, we determined that she had an advanced spleen/liver tumor that looked like it required immediate surgery. It was Friday late afternoon, and finding a surgery location proved difficult, so I was preparing to medicate her, keep her comfortable, and get her into emergency surgery ASAP. It seems that there is a new talented surgeon in town who can work with cases like Zsofia. We discussed what I should look for if issues were to arise at home, one of which was massive black blood in her stool. Standing in the waiting room, I looked over and she was providing the horrible example that we were just discussing. She could not survive any longer and we made the immediate decision to euthanize her. Zsofia was born on July 4, 2014 and came to us as an adorable 8-week old pup as a gift from a grateful student of mine. She trained with Sue and me at a trainer who helped work with Sue in her wheelchair. Now, I've lost Sue and Zsofia. Fare well, my loves. You will always live in my heart.

Go find Sue my furry.
Prayers for you Steve
Our dogs are our constants. They are always home. When they aren't it is like we no longer have a home. There is the constant sound of missing paw steps on our floor, the absence of barking when we get home, the absence of a warm body next to us. It is a wonder anyone can go on. Bless you.
Farewell, beautiful Zfosia ... we know you were very much loved, and now you
may rest forever in the arms of your dear Mom, Sue. Steve, we are so sorry for your loss.

Oh, Steve...I am so heartbroken to read that beautiful Zsofia has earned her furangel wings....I understand the swiftness of this, my beloved Gibson was felled by the same and went he went in for the surgery after a week of being on IVs in hope of giving him strength, there was much cancer all inside his tummy and hiding behind was an orange size tumor, and I had to let him peacefully go while under. Dear Zsofia is now lovingly forever wrapped in dear Sue's arms...I am sending. you big, big teary hugs....
