When I took , our semi-feral Baby to get spayed to day. the vet told me he'd had a colleague, look at my little dog Sophies, tests for her heart, he said it was worse than he thought. I told him she's doing really well, happy, playing with the kittens, he said it is only a matter of time, He renewed her prescriptions, he said even the stress of a vet visit, could trigger a massive heart attack. He also told me most dogs, with congestive heart disese. die with in a few weeks to a few months. I didn't want to hear that.

I'm so sorry about your little Sophie. This thin rope of time (news<passing) is so hard to grasp when they are still living what we see as happy and vibrant.
But know that Sophie sees it that way too! All she is & will be experiencing is how FUN! those kitties are and how much she loves this happy life she's living with you.


Give her lots of hugs for us!

I am so sorry! My sister got similar news recently. Her Sadie is doing wonderfully despite having a very large tumor. She takes comfort in the fact that Sadie is so happy and that she knows when she goes it will be quick and painless for Sadie, even if it is going to come too soon

Enjoy Sophie each day.
She is being a happy dog and that is what it is all about

Keep right on rolling. The people vet told me that very same thing 10 yrs ago. I are still here.
