Hen23's Journal~Goodbye

[Henrietta23]

Thanks, turns out the vet was at a conference. He called this afternoon. He wants to do his own exam and bloodwork.
I don't think it's just old age because of the rapid decline. This dog cleared a three foot baby gate two weeks ago.
His gums are black (they always have been. He has black spots on his tongue as well leading people to speculate Chow Chow heritage. The dog is so obviously lab/dberman it cracks me up!) Anyway, DH will bring him and we'll take it from there. I can't do 2 years of this. We had a pug that did the same thing. Kobi is not particularly enjoying life or I would. But you can tell he knows he's not "right". He's the same today as he has been, no better, no worse. :/

So when is the exam scheduled?

 

[Henrietta23]

Tomorrow.

Hmmm, interesting. The State is taking over our district's school system.

I hope Kobi's exam goes well for you!

Let's hope that no news is good news...

They're there right now. I'll let you know what I find out when I hear anything. The fact that DH hasn't called asking me to help him make a decision means either the vet is running late (entirely likely) or that he's done and exam and drawn some blood and there's nothing to do but wait.
