It is with great sadness, that I announce the passing of our dog Pat this week. We made the decision to put him down after five long years of love and companionship with our adopted diabetic. He had many health issues (diabetes, kidney disease, eye cataracts etc etc) and it was his time to go. In the end, we think he had a stroke or suffered some neurological damage (from head-butting the back door open too many times?) causing him to lose feeling and control over one of his back legs. In his last week, he limped around the house a lot, but we continued to shower him with love the whole way through. We thought it was kindest to let him go sooner rather than waiting until later when he was suffering and in pain. You were an awesome first dog, Pat. We love you!
