OT: please pray for my Pup
Hi Everyone...
please pray for one of my "fur kids" (I have 3)...my "middle fur kid"; Kendi; woke up yesterday morning lame in the back leg and screaming in pain. We took him to the vet; he was sedated and his hips xrayed. The vet came back with the diagnosis of the most severe case of hip displaysia that she has ever seen in a 16 month old pup. We notified our breeder immediately last night. Kendi is home; the vet gave him medicines to make him comfortable; but when he moves he whimpers in pain; he cries out---my heart breaks for him. Please don't think I'm being cruel by keeping him alive right now...we are going to put him to sleep---the breeder is talking to the vet today because we have a "guarantee" on him and we have the option of "replacing" him with a new puppy. But we need to bring him to see the breeder as well. My sons also need this time to spend with him and say their good-byes. We love our Kendi-pup dearly. He is our most lovable critter...in a different set of cir****tances, because of his love of the human touch, we were going to train him as a therapy dog...my heart breaks for broken and unfulfilled dreams and joy he could have brought to others
I'm having a really hard time dealing with this as well...I can't do for him as I would like to; in terms of caring for him as I am recovering from my last round of plastic surgery that I had on Monday; it's been a really hard week. DH started a new job on Tuesday...I really would like today to be quiet...surgery on Monday; DH new job on Tuesday; Kendi on Wednesday...please God; NOTHING on Thursday.
Thank you for your prayers for Kendi.

Chris,
I am so sorry about your puppy. I will pray for him. I have two babies myself, and my older one was sick a few yrs. ago, and I almost died worrying about her. I had just had a hysterectomy, and she had to have her spleen removed at a doggie hospital that was 45 min. away. Thank GOD my friend was staying with me, and she did the driving. I cried so much my eyes were swollen for a week. Please know I am thinking of you and praying for your Kendi.
