If you have a few minutes to spare, don't miss this story by Dr. Melody Heath, DVM, about her struggles to euthanize her own aging Dachshund, red smooth 'Toby.' We don't recommend that you read the article at work. It's available at dvm360, and it's called The Last Act.
I should not have read that at work. :-(
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing that touching story.
ReplyDeleteThat was so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI lost my 17 year old dachshund a week ago today...thank you for posting that.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get down to the part about not reading at work until it was too late. Heartbreaking, but so touching. I can't wait to get home and love all over both my dogs.
ReplyDeleteLovely writing. She didn't severe the bond though - she forged a stronger one to last 'til she meets Toby again at the Rainbow Bridge.
ReplyDeleteSo touching. Im bawling.
ReplyDeleteI want to tightly hug my fur-babies and never let go.
