who came to AZBHR just on November 5, 2009 as an owner relinquish as Zack
needed surgery for the cancer tumor. After running tests a difficult
decision was made by AZBHR’s medical review committee as the cancer had
spread to many parts of his body and surgery wasn’t an option and his new
Auntie Kim went to <ST1><ST1><st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Sundance</ST1></st1:PlaceName>

(November 6<sup>th</sup>) I got the call from Robin Martin, VP/Intake
Coordinator that Zack needed to be put down as he had cancer in many parts and
was having problems breathing…surgery was not an option due to the
severity and location of the masses. So I headed over to the vet’s
office but first stopped to get him a Krispy Kreme donut with chocolate and
jimmies plus a Burger King double cheeseburger for Zacks last meal. I cry
as I write this cuz the minute I walked in the vets office to the exam room
Zack wagged his tail and gave me kisses…how could I say goodbye to this
sweet boy. So I gave him his donut (dessert first for this sweetie) which
he took all of it in his mouth and chowed down quickly. Then I broke up
the double cheeseburger and feed it to him and he ate it all and again gave me
kisses. I then spent some time with him and just gave him some loving and
lots of kisses. I told him about the <ST1><ST1><st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName

and that Naomi (my foster who died of cancer 2 years ago), my sweet Beatrice
ATB along with all the other hounds would great him at the bridge, show him the
way and that a steak dinner was waiting along with a pain free body. Well
the time came to say goodbye to this sweet boy and as he went to sleep tears flowed
and I loved on him all I could in the short time I knew him. While this
was very difficult for me I’m so glad I could be there for that sweet boy
and wish there had been more I could have done for him. <O></O></span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
