Our good and faithful friend...
Our good and faithful friend Morgan passed away yesterday.
Despite being showered with all the love in the world and the best efforts of Dominique Rouvet, DVM, at North Hills Animal Hospital and Derek Duval, VMD at Georgia Veterinary Specialists, he was unable to overcome the breathing difficulties caused by his collapsed trachea.
Unwilling to allow his suffering to continue, we made the very difficult decision to have him euthanized yesterday afternoon.
He is now at peace.
"I have sometimes thought of the final cause of dogs having such short lives and I am quite satisfied it is in compassion to the human race; for if we suffer so much in losing a dog after an acquaintance of ten or twelve years, what would it be if they were to live double that time?"
Sir Walter Scott
