Safe Travels Lucas…
My husband just called me. He asked me if I was sitting down and I knew it could not be good news, but I had no idea….
Our sweet summer boarder, Oscar’s best buddy and playmate, passed away this morning. He apparently was fine this morning giving kisses to his daddy and jumping around excited ready to go on a walk with his mommy. During the walk he collapsed, revived enough to get to the vet, and collapsed again. They actually took him to the emergency room of the vet hospital where they tried to revive him but they could not do it. They said he had something around his heart that was preventing the blood from moving and they could see blood around the outside of his heart. The vet said that this was something that he probably had for a long time and he might’ve had these episodes before although no one ever saw them.
And he just never woke up again.
I am heartbroken. A total mess. He was such a sweet boy. Big old ball of love. Who loved belly rubs and to nibble on your neck. He had so much energy this summer while he was here for a month. He ran around the living room and played in the pool with Oscar. He did not seem ill at all. My Gate Keeper Of The Refrigerator Door…
I know the family must be heartbroken as we are. It is a sad day in our house.
Safe travels sweet Lucas… We will miss you big guy…
