Nope. Legs are pretty normal, he just saw a bird and started to get into attack mode [emoji23]
That look says it all! She cleared loved you as much as you loved her. I'm sure the life you gave her made her forget her rough start.

That is an incredible story. I hope as you work through your understandable grief you find some comfort in knowing how much better both of your lives were for having found each other.Robotaz wrote:So, I don’t believe I have mentioned it here, but 2 days ago I unexpectedly had to put my 16-year old foxhound, Angel, to sleep.

Thanks.
That is the truth.Sussa wrote:They just don't stay with us long enough.
Thank you for sharing this. Such a great tale and I love that you both had so many great years together. It's never easy, especially the first couple months, but she will always live on in your heart and memories.Robotaz wrote:So, I don’t believe I have mentioned it here, but 2 days ago I unexpectedly had to put my 16-year old foxhound, Angel, to sleep.

I'm going through a loss myself at the moment, so my sympathy for you is especially acute.

I’m so sorry that you lost your friend. Most of us know that the hurt is real, so you do not have to try to explain yourself. For those who don’t know that the hurt it real, well, they haven’t been lucky enough to have had that special bond in their life. You unquestionably not only saved her life but also made it immeasurably better...and you always remember that!Robotaz wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 10:46 am So, I don’t believe I have mentioned it here, but 2 days ago I unexpectedly had to put my 16-year old foxhound, Angel, to sleep.
