In loving memory...
You might be wondering about my subject line... Well... We're putting our dog to sleep tomorrow at 4 pm. I know what you may be thinking. So What? It was just a dog. Since I don't have any siblings or family around me (other than my parents), our pets are my family. The dog in question, Iiro ("Ee-row"), turned 14 ½ today, so he's pretty old. He was, no IS our first Giant, EVER! He was a goofball. If you slapped him with a 2x4 (not that we would!) he wouldn't care. When his sight began to go, he kept running into our big willow tree in our backyard. (he ran into it even when he WASN'T blind! lol) He even got a TICK in his BUTT because he liked to go potty at the base of trees. When I left for Finland, he was a wee bit skinny, but still eating well, even though his sight was beginning to go and he was deaf. When I came back...whoah nelly. He was QUITE LITERALLY skin. and. bones. It just broke my heart to see him. He also has this really gross welt on his back that sometimes gets maggots in it *shudder*. My mom thinks it's just a popped cyst, but it's really gross looking though.
Since I'm building the website for our kennel, I'm putting memorial pages up for our dogs, and I'm making a memorial page for Iiro. And he's not even dead yet. It's really heartbreaking when you start to mourn something you love when they're not even dead.
As of 4 pm tomorrow, he won't be suffering anymore. The vet is coming to our house and... well. You know.
NOW I've learned that another one of our dogs is having (sort-of like) seisures. The last dog who had seizures like that was this dog's father and it was because of a brain tumor. Last year (2002-2003) we lost 3 dogs, 2 of which to cancer. It's been a year and half since we've lost one (tomorrow we'll lose another one), but I don't want to go through that again.
Sorry for the pointless-ness of this post. It's just kind of tough for me. Yeah.
