So sorry..... My 7 year old Lab/Terrier mix was diagnosed with Lymphoma in mid February.... We had her on Predisone for a few weeks to keep her comfy and feel like herself, and it worked...She had a great 3 weeks, eating everything in site, running & playing... The meds only worked for so long, before the sickness began to win the battle... She was on her second day of not eating much and just laying around.... That puppy dog look in her eyes was no longer there and I knew it was time, even though I kept trying to convince myself that she was just having a bad day....But that was just my selfishness... I fed her some chicken nuggets and chicken thighs by hand the night before, and rubbed her head for a little while then went to sleep. Next morning I called for her, but she did not come around the corner.... She went peaceful and in her sleep....As hard as it is, I couldn't have asked for a better way for her to go...
