Well.. first it was Christine, then it was a bill crisis with school. Now, of all the things out of left field this happens. My family has two dogs, a border collie and a schnoodle. The Collie's bills are footed by the golf course my dad works at and where the dog chases geese off the property. We've had her as part of our family for almost 7 years now.

My dad took her to the vet today because she wasn't eating and was having issues with breathing and a bit of lethargy. Not knowing what was going on the vet sent some blood samples out to be worked on. Today the results came back..

She has Lukemia. As far as they could tell it's in it's advanced stages, leaving her about a month or less to live. Worse off, the club heard and has chosen the option of letting her die. They found that they couldn't find the money in their budget to save her. And they will probably forgo purchasing a 'replacement' leaving us with a hole in our family.

I am still not sure how to take this. I really don't.. She may be a pest, and a bit annoying.. but she's OUR ANNOYING PEST of a lovable dog. Damn..
