Title: been dreading this.
Post by: tapps on April 11, 2023, 10:17:18 AM
we have a nearly 15 year old Alsatian, a good companion to say the least, took her out yesterday for a walk & she collapsed, (fell to the ground) got an appointment at the vet's this morning at 11.30am, she can't stand up & her eye's are rolling, i think it's time to let her go, we have another dog who is so close to her, it's unbelievable. i've alway's had a dog, it's gut wrenching when they go, she will surely be missed.

This is a desperately difficult situation Tapps, we have been there with our past dogs so know just how you are feeling

I hope all goes well at the vets,

It's always about the dog and what is best for it....good luck...thinking of you

It's a real wrench losing a furry friend but 15 years for an Alsatian is exceptional.
She's had a good long loved life and has given her all to her pack.
They live on in your memories.

Just an update on the dog, she had a couple of stroke's, her left hand side has been affected & the eye's are unstable, the vet gave her a 50/50 chance that she may recover from it, we are not totally giving up on her as of yet !!!!! will give her a few day's then go from there, the main thing is she is not in pain.

just a quick update, she has made a full recovery after the stroke, she may be a little slower than normal, we can live with that, she's a fighter for sure.
