<DIV>Just thought I would let you know that one of my older show dogs was sent
to the bridge today. She actually had not lived with me since she was
about 7, but always came to stay with me when her owner was traveling, which she
did a lot. Huzzy was 13 years and 8 months old when she left us. She
had stopped eating much, and was drinking water constantly, but staying
dehydrated. She also had a large inoperable tumor on her rear near her
bowel opening. She spent the morning at the vet for observation, and at
lunch time he decided she should be x-rayed--her liver was completely white on
the x-ray, and some of her other organs didn't look good. Euthanasia was
the only option for her.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>She loved to show, but had to be spayed after a litter of puppies, so she
never finished her Championship--however, she was always a Champion to us.
Run free, my sweet, beautiful girl--we'll see you again.</DIV>
