Sad News

We had to put Tucker to sleep today. He had been off for a few days and then this morning he couldn't move his hind legs. The doctor said it was probably a disc in his spine that had herniated and was pressing into his nerve column. . She did not recommend surgery as she felt the chances of success were less than 50% and that surgery for a dog his age would be too invasive. It was a very peaceful end.

So sorry to hear about this. I know it must have been difficult but you made the right decision. I was devastated when I had to make that choice for Blacker.
