as anyone seen him this weekend and know what happened that they had to move him to hospice so fast?
I'm going with "late stage terminal cancer", but I'm not a vet.

This was Rosco and my daughter at the 2014 vet school open house. I told her the story of how we got him and that his original name was Rosco. When she walked up to his trailer there were a ton of people at the rear because that's where he was facing. We went around to the opposite side so she could get closer to the trailer to see him.
She started calling out "Rasco" and he turned his head, looked at her, stood up and stretched, turned 180* and layed down right in front of her. She was so exited!!! It was a great moment for her and I. She is pretty broke up about his empending passing. At least we have this wonderful picture of them.
We had it blown up and turned in to a10x12 portrait that hangs in the living room.
RIP Mike!!!!! You will always be in our memories.
