It is a sad day here today. We said goodbye to Comet! About the first of March we took him to the vet because he was limping on his right front leg and it was losing muscle. Exrays didn't show anything wrong, but a tumor was suspected as the cause. He was put on a low dose of prednisone, which helped for a while. A couple of weeks ago he started eating less and less and it was hard to find anything that he would eat! Tests on Monday showed he had kidney disease and he had lost 12 pounds in 2 weeks. He wouldn't eat anything for the last 2 days and the pain meds weren't working very well any more. We could not bear to put him through any more and made the hard decision to let him go. We will miss but never forget our big happy bouncy boy!

Jim, Cathy, Iβm so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed seeing your pack at the picnics and of course have a real soft spot for white hounds!!!
Run free sweet Comet. <3

Godspeed Comet.

I am so very sorry. It is incredibly difficult. Try to take comfort knowing that your love and compassion were a part of Comet always, and were with him as he crossed over.
Godspeed dear Comet.
