Will pray for your sweet doggie. I had a bad dog experience last August. Even though I live a mile and two tenths down a dirt road---some dumbhead had to drive down in here and pull up in my drive way. He hit my pug on the way out but I did not know it until later. He broke her hips on both sides and we had to take her to Virginia Tech and have her operated on. She could not walk for two months--- I kept her in a crib. Then I had to leash walk her for two months. She had a few issues and I had to keep taking her to our local vet. It was a big job---almost like waiting on a person. She is fine now and so happy---the light of my life. So I really do understand how you feel about Bramble.

Sorry to hear about Bramble. Hope he does have a speedy recovery.
Our little big girl has been having trouble getting up on the bed so Daddy put the matress on the floor. Now we sleep almost on the ground. This is ok but I am sorta fluffy and getting out of bed in the morning isn't easy. I guess I am not the head Diva of the house.

Ceejay--I love all living creatures---but I hate cows. I feel so sorry for them and I cry when I see them in cattle trucks. I could never stand to fool with cattle. Goats and donkeys are so much more pettable and I even kiss them---LOL. I was at a cook out at our friends house and she was talking about butchering their next cow and she said she just saw steaks when she looked at that cow. I felt kinda sick and could hardly eat the steak she had cooked---LOL> Still praying for your sweet doggie. I mean don't talk about eating a cow when it is alive and standing by the fence while you are cooking another cow. UGH.

Oh CJ....my heart aches for you. I've never ever been very brave saying goodbye to my for babies. Medical Technology has come very far so I am hoping and praying there is something they can do for Bramble to not only ease his pain but heal him as well. Just praying for peace and comfort. So very sorry CJ.

CeeJay, I am so sorry that Bramble has cancer and it has spread. Poor little Darling!!! My daughter just lost her Great Dane to the same disease a month ago. A tumor was also in her leg and swelled up quickly sending them to the vet for help. They also had to made the painful decision to have her put down . It is very painful to lose your sweetest fur friend!! When I lost my Bump kitty this past December, it was terribly hard and hubby and I were heart broken.
I pray that these final days together with Bramble will be peaceful and that she can rest. Farmgirl Hugs for this extra hard time you are faced with.

Dianna and all Farmgirls, There is nothing to be done. She's too sick! This cancer is quite advanced and we believe by what's going on the past 3-4 days is that it has also gone into her digestive tract. She has refused ALL food for 4 days. She drinks water but that's it.
But she has the heart and spirit of a warrior and I'm amazed at her right now is how she is STILL keeping an eye . . . as best she can . . on Bill and Me. She's a cattle dog so she has incredible "herder/protector" instincts. We've both told her that while we do NOT want her to go, it is okay for her to let go . . . she doesn't need to suffer any longer. So, for now, we just hang out with her and talk about everything, pet her a lot and love on her! And try to deal with our own aching hearts! Darn it!
THANKS FOR KIND WORDS and PRAYERS!
CJ

My precious CeeJay,
Skip and I just went through that with our little dog Jack. I am asking God to wrap his loving arms around Bill and you and to bless you both abundantly with peace and comfort. Having you share the many stories of Bramble in the past years, I feel like she most definitely is one of our little furry farmsisters. I will be praying for courage and strength for Bill, You and Birdie. May God bless you and keep you.
Love and Hugs!
Debbie and Skip (Farmbrother Big Buzz and Buzzn Bee, |
