young Alfie asked if we could watch ‘The Art of Racing in the Rain’ again….

BMW003E · 09-09-2023, 11:11 PM

Well, it was inevitable that we would keep one of the puppies. Introducing Kristal, aka Polar Star N Polar Mist Celestial’s Precious Gem. She is a spitting image of her mom, Celeste, when she was a puppy and has her mannerism to boot.

Bimmer went for his eye checkup at the vet yesterday . They believe he was stung around the eye. He has been on medication for the last month for it. It’s finally looking better. He weighed 155 lbs.

Long ride home after a long day at the cardiologist for checkups.

They are such sweet little dogs. How'd their checkups go? Good, I hope.

Mostly yes, but the breed is subject to heart conditions (particularly mitral valve disease) and they are showing some signs of it, but nothing drastic. Getting them checked earlier than our last 2 so hopefully we catch the deterioration and start medication early.

Smart, Rick.

And glad to hear they're okay and it's nothing too drastic.

They're staring at you like, "Dad, when are we moving into our new house?"

Sorry, saw your post in the your new house thread...

Just about the same work ethic as Tiggie...

My big boy Cayman was diagnosed last year with kidney failure. He made an awesome effort to almost make 10 years old and only missed it by 2 months.
He will be crossing the Rainbow Bridge tomorrow evening. There will be many of his brothers waiting to welcome him.
I’m going to miss my big boy.

vreihen16 · 10-18-2023, 01:42 PM

Condolences on your loss.....

R BMW · 10-18-2023, 01:43 PM

So sorry to hear. Remember the fun times with him.
We will have to go thru this also with our's sooner than later.

Looks like a very sweet dog. Sorry to hear.

Damn, really sorry to hear that. He's had an amazing and loving 10 years, I'm sure.

So sorry to hear it. Somewhere is a saying to the effect of: the price of being grieved is to have been loved so dearly. Know that Cayman lived a good life and will be playing with his brothers, waiting to reunite with you some day.

Marmugmotleocay · 10-19-2023, 04:20 PM

Cayman has passed. We stopped at Dairy Queen on our way to the Vet. He got a hamburger, fries. and a cup of vanilla soft ice cream. He ate everything at the park and he was loving the ice cream. Thank you all for the support and kind comments.

That’s a nice way to remember your boy. We did that as well when we had to put our cat to sleep. Did many things on that last day to make him happy. Also makes for a cherished memory.

Sorry for your loss.

RIP Cayman
