Max the Poodle has Been Put Down
Our standard poodle Max had a serious ear infection that required the
removal of his ear canal. The same infection was found in his other ear and we sought help from this group. Some members suggested that we seek the advice of a holistic vet. This proved to be the answer as Max's other ear was saved and this prevented him from being deaf at any early age. This was many years ago and Max has since led a healthy long life. We had to put Max down last night because he was in an enormous amount of pain. The vet thinks he had a tumour near his spleen. Max would have been 13 years old in June. We would like to thank this group for its help in giving us many years of love and companship with Max. It is time for me to try to sleep and hopefully I will have pleasant dreams of my favourite poodle. We miss him terribly. |

Max the Poodle has Been Put Down
You gave Max a great gift, no more pain. I'm sure his spirit is running
around somewhere now, enjoying not hurting anymore. I remember putting down our dog we had for over 10 years(knew her since she was born) because she had cancer and other health problems. The hurt never entirely goes away, but it won't always be as constant as it is now. |

As one who has been through this, may I highly recommend that you do what I did? A few weeks after my beloved "Simon" died (he had a rare fribrosarcoma), I went out to the SPCA and met a lot of really cool dogs. Then on one visit, I found a little guy who could be Simon's little brother or cousin. So I named him "Stuart". He's been with me for seven wonderful years now. Take a look at his "make-over": http://stuartdog.home.att.net/ Sorry for your loss. I am a big fan of standard poodles and would have one except my condo has a (totally unreasonable) 15 pound weight limit. -- A. Brain Remove NOSPAM for email. |

Brain Remove NOSPAM for email.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - On the weekend, we were cleaning up the gardens and grass in front of our house. Two black poodles (a standard and toy) walked by. The standard reminded us of Max and a black cloud immediately covered both of us. We do have another dog (4 year old border collie) who we love very much. I find myself thinking of Max many times every day - especially at feeding. At this point, the loss is too 'raw'. My better half is thinking of a poodle cross - possibly with a lab. But, I think we are going to wait a while before we make a decision to get another dog (or not). |
