  1. I have started thinking about getting another dog. I said scout would be my last house dog but now I'm rethinking that. A lot of my friends have said get another dog, it really helps. I know I can't replace him and I want to make sure I get another dog for the right reasons. It's just really painful right now and I know only time is going to lessen the sorrows.
  2. I lost my sweet baby scout, my 6 yr old American Eskimo on Wednesday. He had a severe case of pancreatitus that started early Sunday morning. I met my vet who gave him injections for pain vomiting etc and sent him home, telling me to bring him back the next morning. He was worse on Monday. My vet hooked him up to IVs since he couldn't stop vomiting. I went back at closing time fully expecting him to be better. He was much worse. My vet recommended taking him to an emergency vet hospital. I took him that night. They stabilized him. The next morning They said he needed a plasma transfusion abdominal that it would probably bring him back around. It was very expensive but that was the least of my worries. The transfusion went smoothly but at 530 Wednesday morning I got the call that he had passed. Blood work that came back after his death indicated that he always had a chronic case and then he had 2 acute cases back to back and it was Just too much. I'm so sad and Mad because this could have been. Avoided by not giving him table food. I'm so sad and miss my baby so much. Much house is so. Quiet. With my daughter leaving for college it's gonna be really lonely. I feel like I'm gonna be sad forever.
