Our Beatiful Grover had to be put to sleep today. Friday morning we woke up to find him limping. We took him to the Vet on Friday and she x-rayed his back leg. The results showed a clean break in his femur bone. We were referred to an Orthopaedic Surgeon who gave us the sad news today that Grover had Bone Marrow Cancer which was weakening his bones. He could have an operation to amputate his leg and receive a series of chemo treatments to prolong his life for 6 months, however in the end the cancer would reach his lungs and he’d have to be put down.
We ended up making the hard decision to have him put to rest there and then as opposed to prolonging the inevitable and keeping him alive a little longer with less a quality of life.
We told Boncie what happened and he. He said, “I don’t want my Grovey to be gone, I love him and he’s my dog dog” BLESS!!
Love you Grovey Dog.

So sorry to read about your dog. Our dog is 14 now and is starting to show signs of aging. I am realising that she won't be around for ever.
Thank you planning queen. It has been a very sad time for us all. Cuddles to your 14 year old pouch.
xoxo
