Tomorrow it will be two weeks since we had to say good-bye to our sweet baby boy. Murphy was 13-1/2 years old and the love of our lives. Over the past few months, he lost most of his sight and his hearing and, in the past month developed heart problems, so it was time. This was one of the last pictures we had of him and it was so sweet I wanted to share.

These pictures are great! Skootz your dog looks exactly like mine when she's playing in the grass.

Wink I'm sorry to hear of your loss.. .

I need a bit of advice guys, while they are roofing our complex, I take my dog over to my inlaw's during the day for her sanity and for the safety of my furniture. By the time I got home at 7pm she was sleeping quietly in her corner of my bedroom. Around 8pm I noticed she had still not greeted me and mentioned to DH that she must have really worn herself out in their yard, he said yeah whatever. I mentioned how strange it was she didnt jump up into bed with us like she always tries to when we went to bed, he said nothing. Then this morning when he woke up, he remembered that his dad told him when they were playing catch, she suddenly decided not to play anymore and lay down in the grass refusing to get up. Just like men - anyway I took a look at her feet thinking she either broke a claw or got a splinter. She actually tore a peice of skin off the pad of her front paw. Should I rip it off completely (using cuticle scissors of course) and put a bandaid over it or should I leave it on and put a bandaid? She really is miserable when she doesn't even try to jump up on the bed - the heated waterbed is her favorite place to take in the sun and be warm.

No, don't cut it... sounds way too painful! I'd call a vet and ask him over the phone. Hi Grace!!! :-)

Hi Julie :-) Well I put triple antibiotic ointment on it and a super tough bandaid - she's walking around a little bit more now. So let's see what happens. . .

Grace, sometimes it helps to put an old sock over the bandaged area and oddly you can use even duct tape to hold it up.. It gives them a bit more cushion and protection and looks kinda of cute, too :-)

I'm so sorry about Murphy Wink....I so feel your loss. Murphy looks like a shi-tzu and I know how loving those dogs can be. I know how much you are missing your boy right now...

My Tai-Li was a shi-tzu and our groomer used the same puppy cut for her. I lost my Tai about 4 years ago at the ripe old age of 17. She too had lost all hearing and sight. I still chuckle as I remember how our cat Katie (who was a kitten at the time) would position herself on the coffee table as Tai would walk by, and then suddenly dart a paw out and tap Tai on the butt, making Tai jump.... Tai would discover Katie sitting impishly on the coffee table and wag her tail in sweetness... Jeez I miss my girl....

Luvmyjrt, Grace, Jasper, Whoami, Twinkie, and Kep thank you for your kind thoughts.

Whoami thanks for the reminder about the memoriam thread. I will do that this morning.

Kep, yes Murphy was a shih-tzu and just a total lap dog. He lived to love and be loved. His original name was Dandy's Big Guy. Such a big name for such a little peanut. Our 17 yr. old cat Wink handed out those love taps not only from the coffee table but every time they passed each other. I know she misses him too. I found her sleeping in his bed last week.

Sea what a great idea. . . I'll bet she'd feel fashionable too - you should see the way she acts towards the bandana they put on her at PetSmart when she gets her nails trimmed. . . she's such a girl!
