On Feb. 6th we found out that Timber, our 6 yr old. Blue Heeler/Lab mix had Stage 3 Hermangiosarcoma (cancer).
They operated on him and removed two tumors that were bleeding but he still had smaller lesions on his liver that they could not remove and gave him anywhere from 6 weeks to 1 year to live. He was doing well at home after they released him and seemed like his old self until Feb. 16 when he stopped showing interest in his food and was very tired. On Feb. 17 we took him to the vet and they told us the smaller lesions on his liver had started to bleed and he was slowly bleeding to death and would most likely die overnight. In order to spare him a painful end we made the hardest decision we've ever had to make and put him to sleep.
We all miss him terribly and I still can't say his name without starting to cry. The hardest part is knowing that our 10 month old daughter won't remember him...they loved playing together.
Goodbye old friend, we'll never forget you.
