    Thank you for your kind words. I know I am looking at it from my hearts point of view when I say he deserved better. But maybe I’m being unfair. Maybe they were very busy that night with other emergencies.

      When he was a young dog we did a DNA test on him. He seems to have viszla in him. If you Google it you will see a resemblance. However he was advertised as a cairn.

        What a cutie. Was Walker a special breed, or breed mix? Long body, short legs…. and those eyes! How alert and kind. As Dana so beautifully says ” Please remember that between hello and goodbye there was so much love.” And in our heads we know that, but our hearts are shattered. That’s why we are here to share not only sympathy and understandng, but ways to deal with the pain of grief. One thing we can do is to deliberately think of a fun or funny time we shared. Like this photo – I hope it brings back memories of what Walker was up to, and that you find smiles before tears with your thoughts. We’re thinking of you, Judith🤗💔Toni

          Yes, I had her to the dogtor. They did blood work, screening, X-rays, and one other test to the tune of $351 when I told them I had $250. Everything was normal. Sent me home with a bag of solution, a handful of huge needles to give her fluid subcutaneously and two meds. I couldn’t bring myself to use the fluid/ needles. With her being so traumatized and needles hurt, so no. I use a syringe to squirt water in her mouth. When she won’t eat I use puppy milk substitute. And treat her gently, keeping our routine the same, give her lots of love. It brought her around once maybe it’ll work again. I’m getting a consultation with a a respected trainer/communicator. See what happens. I’m trying everything I can to fix her.

          • It sounds as if she is in good hands with you and all that you are doing for her. Please let us know what you find out. Toni

            Yes Grunt-Grunt will always be next to me. The other day I had it quiet because I was reading my Bible and I heard a snore, then another and another I looked down where she used to lay and saw her laying there sleeping on her pillow. It was just for a second or two and it faded away, but it was enough for me.

            Has she been to the doctor? Maybe she has an obstruction. I’d get an exam, blood test and maybe an ultrasound. How old is Lexie Loo now? Keep us posted, please. We’ll be worried with you. Toni

              The first anniversary of losing my Pug Angel Grunt-Grunt was 12/30/23 and I had a very hard time with it. She quit eating on 12/25/22 and was gone five days later. It was made harder because Lexie Loo, the new dog achieved playing just because for the first time in almost a year. So part of my heart was jumping for joy for one dog and still breaking for another. The picture is of Angel Grunt-Grunt ‘s headstone.

              I know how difficult it makes having to make the decision to say goodbye is made by uncaring service. Twice now we have been hurried a long in making the decision and how much time I was given to say goodbye. One dog was put down before I could even get there to say goodbye. You obviously loved Walker very much and that he lived his best life with you. And always remember that between hello and goodbye there was so much love. Much PugLove and many PugHugs Angel Grunt-Grunt and Momma

                Anniversaries are very hard. Grief is love with no where to go. Please remember that between hello and goodbye there was so much love.

                    I have worrysome news on my newest baby Lexie Loo. She\’s gone from Christmas Eve she ran, and played, and talked to us for an extended period of time just because for the first time ever to on 2/6&7 overnight she went back to being scared, won\’t go outside off leash, only eats when she feels like it, and I have to try a few things on her when she does eat. I put liquid in her food, but on days she doesn\’t eat I have to use a syringe to keep her hydrated. She\’s never alone, so we can\’t figure out what happened to trigger this. Any suggestions?

                            • I found Viszla rescues if you are looking to adopt. I can see some Cairn in his picture. How are you doing now, Judith?
                              • Not looking to adopt. We have 2 westie girls, 8 years old and 1 cairn schnauzer mix, almost 14. We are getting older and have mobility issues. But we’ve had many dogs throughout the years.

                                I am doing ok. A lot better than when I first found this group.

                                • You certainly have a big heart and love pets. That’s the only downside to loving our little darlings – they are only on loan to us, never for long enough. But I think the joys of sharing lives with them comes to outweigh the pain of parting. It does take time, talk and sympathy to find a place of gratitude, and we are here for you, Judith. You are a lovely, loving addition to our community and I hope you will extend your own kindness to others here who are healing. I am sending you and yours a {{BIG HUG}}💕Toni
