My Sweet Lily isnt doing any better. We have an appointment at 7 pm. I want to be selfish and keep her here with me forever. She lifts her had and wags her nub everytime I pass by her. I have laid with since last night on this floor , even putting a mattress on the floor for us to lay on. Everytime i get up she cries out for me. Her soulful eyes look at me to help her and I cant. I have always been here for her through everything and this time I cant make it better. Her weight problems wont support her legs. We have battled this for years from her Thryroid issues. to her being so scared of everything she feels only safe in her own back yard. She never liked walks and would lay down half way in fear because the POS who raised her treated her badly. She feared the outside world her entire life. We tried everything to help her over come her fears but her only comfort was our back yard. She has had hip problems and leg problems so it made it hard for her . She never chased a ball and believe me we tried everything. For years she would pee if you even looked at her. If someone new came in our home she would hide and cry , I kid you not it has only been the last few years that she truly learned to trust people she didnt know well or at all. we have had her for about 6/7 years now and it took that long for her to trust after being locked in a basement and treated so badly by a breeder. I found her in a basement locked up for the first year or so of her life. She never even knew how to walk on the ground ,floor or grass. I brought her home and she hid for so long under my back deck shaking in fear. Her legs didnt get to form in that crate I know this is apart of her limb issues. This sweet gentle loving, loyal girl isnt ready to leave her family. I keep hoping that there will be an answer when we get there to help her . I know she had a great life with us and she has taught my children and grandchildren so much. when i was treating for my cancer she would crawl up under my legs and feet and lay there for hours in a day. She till did this up till two days ago. She would always wake me with a wet nose ( she wasnt a kisser) But you knew that wet nose we a kiss. Nudging someone to help her down the stairs or to let us know she wanted her spot on the couch. She loved all animals. birds, ferrets, other dogs , cats ( even though they didnt like her lol her sized scared them. I thnk) She would of been a great therapy dog with her gentle ways. The peace maker of the pack . But if you messed with one of her pack members she would charge you and herd you away. NEver once trying to bite or hurt someone or another animal . Just herd them away. Please keep this sweet gentle giant in her prayers . We are leaving now for the vet :( :(
