Re: 15 year old cocker spaniel on Vetoryl...dose too high
I've been doing a lot of reminiscing too lately. Missing the ones who have been gone for 30+ years and the ones who left only a few years ago; comparing the ones still here to the ones who are gone; and mourning for the ones I still have because someday they will be gone too. Must be this bleary winter....
Lena changed so much in the last year. Not wanting to be held, not wanting to sleep under the covers anymore; only sitting on me for a few minutes. Gable stopped sleeping upstairs after Lee died and will only sit next to me on the couch for a few minutes, but will lie at my feet wherever I am. He still knows who she was. When I talk to him about her, he always listens intently and tilts his head when I say her name.
I tell myself I will never have four dogs again, I'm too old and it's too much, but I do look at all the rescue posts and I think, maybe...if I saw one that looked like Lena, I know I would do it.
Such is the life of a dog lover, I think...
