    Kendal

    Kendal hasn't had a good last few weeks, turns up his nose at food initially but can be coaxed to eat it. He's always been a chow hound so we know this isn't a good sign. Took him to the vet on Wednesday and he was quite concerned that Kendal seemed to be in a great deal of pain. He suggested a tweaking of meds, adding Metacam and increasing his does of tramadol. Wednesday evening he seemed to rally, but since then it seems to be a slow decline. I called the vet today and told them unless he improves over the weekend that I wanted to schedule a home euthansia on Monday. I hope he improves, but at this point I don't think so. The sparkle has gone from his eyes and I don't want him to get to the point that he can't get up at all and his pain is constant. We will spend the weekend spoiling him rotten, maybe a trip to the lake, a drive around the river, hamburgs and whatever makes him happy. Maybe a new squeaky toy for him to enjoy.

    I am sorry to hear Kendal isn't feeling well. I hope if he can and it is right for him the pain meds kick in and he starts feeling better, either way our thoughts are with you all this weekend.

    I'm so sorry you are at this time. If Kendal can tolerate and likes hugs, a special one from me. One for you too.
