We’ll Miss You Sparky

Sadly, I have to let you all know that we had to say our Goodbyes to Sparky last Friday, May 6.  Sparky was diagnosed with a bone tumor on Dec 31 2015 and had his right front leg amputated on that day – great way to celebrate NYE, not!!.  His recovery was going well, but after about 3 months he started to slow down and it was pretty clear that he was dealing with other challenges.  Seemed like his hind legs were losing power and then he started favoring his rear left leg.

I’m really happy that I had the resources to have his surgery and I have no regrets.  After the surgery it was so clear that the pain for that limb had gone away.  He was a happy boy once again.  Fortunately his inner circle of humans were able to be with him as he left the planet.  What a wonderful Dog.
