No way to repay an old friend




What a cold cold night it is out there. We just came back in from our after supper stroll and there was definitely no dawdling and leisurely sniffing of every last thing this evening.
McG had a really good day today ... which of course makes me very happy. Later this week we'll be back into my vet for another mini checkup. While I do get that there are no miracles afoot that doesn't mean that I would even consider jumping the gun. My vet and I know each other well enough that I will trust her to be the voice of reason if I don't or wont' recognize when its time. But until that day we will do what we can, while we can to make sure that the little man has the best quality of life possible.
So you can just imagine how livid I was to get an email about this fellow here. His name is Caesar and like McG, he is 11 years old. His owner has moved into a house with some other people and instead of 'putting them out' he has made an appointment to put Caesar down. What a horrible way to repay years of love and devotion.
P.E.T. PROJECTS is desperately trying to find a foster and / or a new home for this sweet guy. He is already neutered and Shelly was in to visit him today and said that he seemed very friendly. Poor guy is upset to be in a kennel and hasn't eaten since last friday.... imagine that, eh?
Caesar is a sweet old guy who deserves the chance to live the rest of his days in peace and dignity. If you , or someone you know , can offer this guy a safe berth , please call Pet Projects - the Society number is 875-2367. or call Shelley at 637-1560

This is just the most enfuriating thing. After 11 YEARS???

What a beautiful dog. I hope he finds a loving home to live out his remaining few years.

Poor little sweetheart. I hope he's begun eating again :-(

Please let us know if you get an update on him (and bless you for helping to spread the news about Caesar).
