It’s been a rough week. We lost a beloved member of our family Friday night. Tallulah, our 12-year-old “Florida cur” terrier, is gone.
Tallulah (Lulu) quit eating except for treats, and we got her into the vet Monday morning. Labs indicated her liver enzymes were very high (versus normal 5 months ago), and she was hospitalized to boost her health. When we picked her up from the vet to visit the specialist on Thursday afternoon, her condition had degenerated drastically. The specialist found very aggressive hemangiocarcinoma of the spleen and liver, and Tallulah was given days before the cancer took her. We made her as comfortable as we could, but were afraid she might be in pain. She wouldn’t say.
With that fear and concern, we took her to the urgent care vet Friday night. Lulu peacefully passed, surrounded with love and kisses. My husband said he lost a little piece of his heart.
Lulu will always be loved and missed. She was a great dog, funny, punked other dogs, and punked us as well.
We love you, Lulu.

So very sorry for your loss. Our fur babies are such integral parts of our daily lives. May you find solace in the fact that you were there to help her find the way to the Rainbow Bridge. Virtual hugs.

Awwww so sorry, it hurts so much to let them go! My heart breaks for you guys, we lost our Big Red in February, basically the same thing, he was fine, then he wasn't, went from running and jumping one day to barely able to walk the next, he was in pain, his eyes and tiny whimpers said so. He had 5 huge growths in his lungs and stomach and he only had days left, in pain...so we had to say goodbye, besides my Mom's passing, it was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Bless you, I know you are hurting right now.

So sorry to hear of the loss of your dog. You'll remember her the rest of your life. Sometimes, I still miss our dog, Blackie, because he pulled the rope attached to our tire swing. it was fun to have a dog to swing us. He had other tricks, too. The dog I have now is a Doxypoo, and she looks like an apricot poodle with a short long body.

So sorry for the loss of your Lulu. My family recently lost our beloved dog as well, so I know how hard it is. Our furry family members are such blessings, but saying goodbye to them is the hardest part. I hope your memories of good times with her bring you comfort. Sending love and best wishes at this difficult time 💜
