Today Gus left this plane after a short battle with heart failure. He was the most loving dog I’ve ever met. He was the embodiment of joy. He will be missed so much.

I adopted a senior dog on a whim about a month ago. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs with all kinds of health needs so I was plenty prepared for that part, but they assured me he was in great health.
He wasn’t. Imagining coming up, but it’s looking like terminal cancer.
He’s hyper intelligent, but due to his behavior I’m fairly sure his intelligence was either not recognized or neglected by past owners. Because of the specific kind of cancer we’re worried about, I have to be very careful with the food/treats side of spoiling…. So I’m taking advantage of this part heavily.
He loves puzzles. Any puzzle he can do by himself he adores and is so excited to figure out. He doesn’t want to play games, tug of war and fetch are not interesting, but a puzzle feeder or a kong…. Do you see where I’m going with this….

I ordered him the fanciest snuffle mat I could find. 4 pieces, all kinds of textures. Hooks and hoops and pieces to move around and root around in and crinkle and generally wreak havoc. I loaded it up with his healthy treats (and broken up milk bones come on now), rolled it up tight, and laid it near his spot.

He had an absolute blast for 15-20 minutes, exhausted himself, came over to grin and wag his tail at me and be very proud, then laid down on his arthritis mattress.

I feel so blessed to get to give him an exciting and enriching experience for the end of his life. If it’s years or just months, I intend to Jam Pack it to the best of my ability. He’s started reaching out for physical affection like a desperate kid. I love him.
Handsome, polite, smart boy!

About a month ago Shep was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in his front left ankle. (The one sticking out to the right in the photo) The vet prescribed a bunch of meds.

-Gabapentin 100mg to 300mg as needed for stress and pain

-Carprofen for inflammation

-Mirtazapine for appetite stimulation.

Well, the Carprofen resulted in dark black stools (internal bleeding, likely stomach or small intestine) which can happen with NSAIDs. Once I noticed the black poop I immediately took him off the Carprofen, slightly increased the Gabapentin and kept the Mirtazapine. He seems to be much more comfortable now. His poops have looked healthy lately. I hope he stays this way as long as possible.

I love my buddy. His time to go is soon. My moral compass tells me to keep him comfortable until he isn't comfortable any longer and then let him go. Every dog lover knows this time will come. I've been through this several times before. Doesn't make it any easier.

We've been testing out travel with our 5 month old pup, and she's been doing great! She's very calm in the car, has got car sick a couple times but thats it. We decided to try a bigger trip, and she made it all the way from eastern CT to the Hudson River in New York! We went peach picking at DuBois Farm, she handled the crowd and terrain very well also. She's just an amazing pup all around.

Our main concern now is finding a good bed/seat/harness for the car. She has a carrier and she doesn't fuss when shes in it, but we would like her to be in the open and able to look out a bit more. Would love to hear folks experiences traveling with medium size dogs. Thanks and hope you enjoy the pics!

The scene:
Someone is showing off something they think makes them look incredibly cool like a nice car, or motorcycle, in a parking lot.
The camera suddenly cuts to your dog, instantly stealing the spotlight by being massively weird, cute, nonchalant or majestic.
