Today was a very sad day at work. we had to put down one of the dogs that live there. Rosco was such a sweet heart. You could turn around and see him following right behide you. The only bad thing about him that he had seizures from time to time. The past few months had been really good to him because the meds we was giving was controling them. But yesterday morning I knew something was wrong when i went to put the dogs up and he wasn't with everybody else. I finally found him in a lower building we had. He couldn't stand and he was a mess. See this dog weight over 50 pounds probbly closer to a 100 pounds and i couldnt get him up so i wraped him in a blanket and ran inside to call a doctor. We finally got him draged up and inside a run. Usally he would sleep a while and would finally start standing up. But he never did it this time. He had at least one more seizure before we left that morning. and i rushed around like a chicken with my head cut off to find some valuim to give him. I came a little early to check on him that afternoon and he looked wrost. See that morning if u said his name he would try to raise his head but by now he wouldn't even do that :(. Just as the doctor was coming in for another emergey he had another seizure and it was a very bad one. It was decided it was better to put him to "sleep" the let him suffer all night long because this time it didn't look like he was getting any better. So the dr called the owner to make sure it was ok and it was. I can at least say he died in peace and we got him out of the pain he was in and with ppl that loved him. Because Rosco was a great dog and i will miss very dearly. At least now he won't get picked on by the other dogs. Goodbye Rosco I will miss you so much.
