Riley, 8 yr. old maltipoo, 25 lbs., diagnosed Feb 2017, taking thyroid meds, had pancreatitis and DKA mid March, eating Wellness Senior formula can food. NPH dosage now at 9.0 units Humulin N. Adding either pumpkin, spinach, blueberries, yams, or green beans to his food. Also omega-3 oil.
Thursday things turned to the worse. She seemed to have no feeling below the neck. Emergency vet believed it may be a tumor or worsening leaking of spinal fluid. Our kids rushed home to say their goodbyes and Luna was peacefully euthanized yesterday morning.
This was our first experience of this. Luna was our first and only dog and we all were worried about the process. Would she be in distress or pain? I'm comforted to know how peaceful it was and I know she knew we were there loving her to the very end.
It was difficult not to hop out of bed this morning to prepare her breakfast and insulin. She was the perfect family dog. I hope she is in a better place with her sight restored, chasing bunnies like she did in her youth. Happy and pain free.
Thanks to everyone through the years that have been so helpful and caring. You have been an invaluable resource.
Luna passed in loving arms and no pain . A true blessing and all we can ask for .
She will be missed

OMG, I never expected something so quick. God's message was clear I guess.
Know that Luna enjoyed every day with you all, and that's the best we can do. Make them happy and they make us happy.

I'm so sorry to hear of Luna's passing. Losing a loved one is never easy but I hope you can get some solace from knowing you gave her the best life possible. Rest in Peace Luna,
Liz and Blue
