Chase is definitely missing Ranger. He has been acting weird couple of weeks before Ranger left us. I had been spending a lot more time with Ranger, i.e. patting, talking, playing, walking and helping him move across the yard back to the house. With Ranger panting so hard, some days Chase goes over to him [...]
We, as in me, DBs and Chase misses Ranger. It’s like when Cooper was put down, the household seems quieter. But then Ranger and Chase were back to normal after 3 days after Cooper’s departure. Ranger: April 1, 1999 – March 23, 2012 You were such a mellow one, no fuss type of dog. If [...]
Here’s the scoop with Ranger. We started him on Adequan which is suppose to help with his joints. To be honest, the shots did help his aches and that’s after 3 shots – twice a week. We saw a marked improvement with his gait. He was happily walking and enjoying his walk, sniffing away! Was [...]
This is Ranger, taken on Monday, March 6. It doesn’t look bad here, but he was actually in a bad shape. We were coming back from our walk in the afternoon. He was already limping before we went out. I cut short his walk after his afternoon “business”. As we were coming up the road [...]
This is Chase, not a very good picture coz I didn’t have my camera with me except my cellphone. We were taking Ranger to the vet and felt bad for this guy left alone at home. Usually we will leave him home but since Cooper is now have a jolly good time running in open [...]
Here’s the scoop on Ranger. We took Ranger in couple of times to the vet the past few weeks. Due to him wanting to eat and drink so much, limping, yeast infection in his left ear, and stumbling on his own on our walks, we took him to see Doc M. Doc did a very [...]
Mr Ranger is getting very old. Old in age, yes, he’s going to be 13 years old in April. Human age for his weight and size is around 96, that’s what the vet told me. We think he has some problem inside him, too. Inside meaning his organs are shutting down. It’s either his kidneys [...]
To the dogs now. The two dogs are loving the much cooler weather. The colder it is out there, there’s less and less panting. The day temperature so far is around lower 50′s F and evening is down to 40′s F which is really nice for outdoors. I have been spending a lot of time [...]
DB found a tooth in the kitchen, right next to Ranger’s food bowl. We think it’s this guy…. He has been eating slower for a while but then I didn’t pay much attention to him eating. He always eats fast but not as fast as Chase. I was paying attention to Cooper then because Cooper definitely was [...]
Couple weeks ago (August 21, 2011) I was walking Cooper on his own and when we got home, I thought I would brush him a little but he was not up to it. He wanted to go inside. Now I know why Before we went in, I saw clumps of hair sticking out from his [...]
My RCIA coordinator, the doggie lover, gave me these gifts. And a very nice card: This is the “Dog Plea” she told me on Sunday: And a kiddie book on “Dog Heaven” These were beautiful and very meaningful gifts. DB already knows Coops is busy scouting through the fields, running to his heart content knowing [...]
The day we have to take Cooper to the vet to put him down, Ranger and Chase were super hyper. Ranger especially. He is always laid back, only will move around when we call him. But that day, he was following us after I put Cooper’s collar on. Ranger and Chase were already at the [...]
Cooper – June 8, 2000 – August 26, 2011 Both DB and I are very relieve that Cooper, the resident dog, is now at peace, finally able to sleep and having a big happy time chasing squirrels, rabbits, deers and birds in heaven! Cooper, buddy boy, we are missing you. We are reminiscing the good [...]
The vet called us late last evening when she received the cytology results. The word LYMPHOMA was in caps. Yes, Cooper has lymphoma cancer. The vet said it’s treatable but expensive. Chemo is the main treatment which is very expensive. The second one is treat him with prednisone (steroids) which will only make him feel [...]
