Hey guys!
So, I have some sad news that I am deeply struggling with.
Tonight I will be saying goodbye to my beautiful bestfried of 15 years. My handsome and wonderful pug Zephyr has been declining over the last few months. My vet and I have been keeping him comfortable for the last few months fully knowing things could change any day.
Zephyr has been with me since the day (literally) I moved out of my parents home. He has been with me over the years through some extremely difficult things (various surgeries, MS diagnosis, death of grandparents and two old dogs, etc). He is a cancer warrior himself with going through four rounds of chemo therapy and physical therapy. He has been my clinic’s “Front desk dog” over the years bringing comfort and love to all our clients who have walked in and lost their own family members. He is deeply loved by my family and a lot of my friends who have all grown attached to him as I have.
He is the embodiment of the perfect dog. He was a breeze to train and has never left my side.
Now, I haven’t slept in two days. He is now struggling to walk (due to cancer growth in his spine), he’s wont eat or drink and last night he vomited at some point and he just slept in it. :,( I know it’s time for him but my heart is so incredibly broken. He’s my best friend and it’s hard to imagine life with out my little bud.
I will be taking in to work tonight to say my finial goodbye. My life will forever be changed in a matter of a few hours and I’m terrified.
Not sure why I’m sharing this here. I just need to express myself I guess and I feel safe doing it here amongst my pony people. Sorry for the sad post. I’m crying so much I can barely see what I’m doing, my anxiety is through the roof today. I already don’t know what to do with myself, so I came here to get it off my chest I guess.
