Tuesday morning, I had to Take my Sammy to the ER…..Something in the air told me I would not be Bringing him home Physically. The results were Nodes found in the Liver, Lungs & Pancreas, Pancreatitis, and Pneumonia….Tony and I talked about What the Possibilities of Treatment would Look like, and if we proceeded, where we Making the Choice for him or for us….We had a Wonderful month Post Surgery with him, and Frankly the Best almost 10 years of out lives with him,,,We ultimately decided that for him the next few months would not be good for him, and No Guarantee it would even grant us a few more months, and we just could not do that to him…. So we Chose to Say see you soon old boy and relive him of any pain. Tony Could not be there, so Thankfully My Wonderful Cousin Leigh Ann, dropped everything, took PTO, and came with me. I Honestly do not think I was strong enough to have done this on my own….I can not thank her any more. With her by my side, I Felt Strong, even though I was not at time.
They say that our animals take on our personalities…..I think for us, we took on his. From day one, he taught us to Laugh Hard, Love Unconditional, and never take yourself so Seriously. I will always Cherish the time we had and he is always live Squarely in the middle of my Heart, but for now by soul is broken, and that is going to take time.
To Love a Bloodhound is not for the Faint of Heart…They are Loud, Head Strong, Needy and the Most Loving, Trusting and Loyal breed you will ever come across. They are somewhat like living with a 150lb 2-year-old, from Day one. When Tony Decided he was Dead set on Getting a Bloodhound.. Lisa can train him, look at how good Tucker was, No Problem he said……Oh how naïve he was…..My Tucker was a Golden and they live to Please their Owners….Bloodhounds however live to Please Themselves, I was to say the Least Scared Little….Well maybe a lot. We were headed into unknown Territory, and I was up for the Challenge…..I can honestly say it was the BEST decision we made. It was Hard, it was fun, it was loud, and in the end, I knew I had my Best Friend Ever. Mommy Was his Care Giver, Snuggle Partner (I will Miss not being Able to Stretch my Legs out on the bed at Night, or giving up my side of the Bed for the Couch at the Deer lease so he could sleep with Daddy), and Daddy was the Fun one (They Went on Adventures, and Tours of the Deer Lease in the Samuri, Shared All the Meals, Drank out of the hose when they Watered the Garden)……We tried to give him the Best Life he could have had, ( I Hope he felt this, I know in my Heart He KNEW Big Love) But we are More Thankful for all he Gave us! We will miss every bit of our life with this Great Big Beautiful Slobbering Hound dog, and one day the tears will Fade, and we will have all the Wonderful Memories to warm our hearts.
But for this moment in Time, I feel this loss in my Soul. Fly High my Sammy Whammy, Mommy and Daddy Love you Big! Till the day we meet again, you will Always live in my Heart!
