Star, thanks for highlighting this thread to me! 🙂
BDW, thanks for the link! Those squirrels are great! 😀 I bet that’s what all the squirrels are doing when they think no one is watching.
This is terrible, but its very lucky that you weren’t more seriously hurt. It sounds like your guardian angel was working overtime! Hang in there…
I’m very sorry to hear this. 🙁 Its really hard to lose a dog, but it sounds like he had a great life with you. I loved seeing him on the forum…he’ll be missed.
Good to hear from you, Cheryl! I’m glad that you finally got out of the horrible place, though I wish the circumstances had been better. I hope you and your husband both find good positions soon.

Those are great! 😀
Squirrel fishing is actually a popular activity: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLyvztw7tPY
I’m so sorry to hear this, Ski. 😥 I had to go through the same thing with our family dog, so I know exactly how you feel. But you gave him a great life, and he knew that he was loved.
Congratulations! Its great that you’re able to celebrate Christmas at your new house!
Its a bummer that the previous owners didn’t make more of an effort to clean things up. I hope everything else has been going well, and I can’t wait to see your pieces on Ebay again! 🙂

Thats what she said, since they couldnt see the gall bladder during the ultra sound. I remember her saying she checked/squeezed his stomach, though, and he didnt appear to be in pain. Both symptoms of a ruptured gall bladder, from what she said. I dont know what caused the change of heart… The gall bladder suggestion came from the lady on the big island over the phone. Maybe the vet didnt remember that she checked his stomach. I dont know… The big island lady wont be back till the 6th so the biopsy via the needle is out. Only option is the exploratory surgery or put him down. I kinda wish he would just pass peacefully in his sleep, but then he is gone and I cant help him… though fat lot of good im doing now. Im sure he feels different. Tonight he had ham, pumpkin bread, and chicken treats for dinner. He has never had food that tasted so good. Some of ya’ll may cring at what im feeding him, but it feels so much better than just watching him starve. I think starvation would kill him before his liver or gall bladder does.
Hmm…it doesn’t sound like its the gall bladder then. I can imagine how you feel…it must be terribly stressful. I think you’re definitely doing the right thing to just let him eat whatever he’s willing to.
I’m really sorry to hear this. I agree with what everyone else has said. We lost our family dog to cancer so I know exactly what you’re going through. We spent a lot on various treatments, but when she started to be in pain and it became apparent that she couldn’t be saved, we had to put her to sleep. It was one of the saddest events of my life.

Thanks so much, everyone! And I love all of the great pictures! 🙂
Lokie — your brother’s chinchilla is adorable! I’d love to have him come visit!
Kitsune — how cute! That fellow looks pretty chubby! Is he one of your backyard squirrels?
Nirvana — that’s a perfect squirrel cake! 😀
Darjeb — that’s a great picture! Your doggie is so cute. I want to give him a hug!
Ski — I’ve missed you too!
Lamorte — its good to see that little fellow again! 🙂
Star — I’d love to have both of those guys come for my birthday! Hey — it looks like Lamorte’s little fellow decided to get into your picture!
Necron — very appropriate! I spent my birthday working like crazy so I do feel very zombie like right now. 😀
