perdy was euthanized this afternoon.

Carol  ·  Feb. 10, 2011

it was a difficult decision because by 3 pm altho very unsteady and needing alot of help...she was able to get up on her feet again....as long as we were supporting her back end.

but the vet felt she was painful even with the high dose of tramadol still on board and perdy was most definitely unhappy and distressed at not being able to get up and mobilize on her own.

the vet said that we could probably make her more comfortable for a couple of days maybe...however...the end result was going to be the same..perdy was not going to suddenly get better...her strength would just continue to slip further away.


my deepest condolences to all of us who loved her so well...yes she could be a royal pain in the ass with the other animals....but with us..she was always so cheerful and kind.

rest in peace dear perdy, you were truly and greatly well loved and may heaven await you full of mr. christie peanut butter pirate cookies which you really loved.

Perdy, way back in the day you were always one to watch out for when you came in for grooming, you found the other dogs bothersome. But you were the sweetest, nervous girl. You could tell by looking in your eyes you had the softest, most gentle soul. I'm glad that you found your way to Carol and all the wonderful people at SAINTS, no soul as kind as yours could ask for anything more. RIP sweet girl.

Shit. I'm so sorry. It didn't seem so long ago you were running in the school field. You were so well loved and you always had such a beautiful place in my heart. Next time I visit, I'm sure I'll miss your soft, but weird and lumpy ear, and your twinkle toes dancing as Brenda said. You were a true lady, always taking your cookies so carefully from our hands. I'm glad you went with grace and dignity.

Goodbye Pretty Perdy - I'm so glad you got to spend your last year of life surrounded by people who loved you dearly.

Brenda

Aw, sweet Perdy; I will really miss her presence in the laundry area - and her dancing with her front feet for a cookie! Doing laundry will not be the same this Sunday.
