Steve died today. He was doing great until yesterday when he decreased his eating. But early this morning got up suddenly and peed/ pooped all over then couldn’t stand up. We took him to the emergency vet who felt he was having significant abdominal bleeding. So we had him euthanised. It was so hard to say goodbye. But we told him we loved him as it was happening. I hope he felt it.
Here he is in better days starting with the day we met him.

Rest in Peace Steve. You were loved by so many and will be missed.
Oh noooo! I’m so sorry to hear this news, Donna. He was such a special guy. I remember when you first got him, and how he’d been returned once or twice to the shelter before you and Tom adopted him. That’s so hard on a dog, and I’m so glad he finally found his forever home with you and Tom. My deepest condolences.
Thanks Maureen! I had forgotten that he had been returned until I reread his adoption day post yesterday. It took a while but he finally came to trust us and became happy. It was a nice transformation.
I’m so sorry to read this. Judging by the photos, Steve lived a GREAT life, filled with love and adventures. What a gift he was to you all, and you all to him.
Thanks Liz! I am trying to focus on that. He does appear to be smiling in the photos.
So sorry, Donna. Steve was a sweetie, and had such a good life with you guys. He will be missed.
Thanks Denise. He was a sweetie. I hope he had a good life with us. He sure enhanced ours.
From the pictures, he had a good life. Thank you to your family for giving that to him. They say dogs take a part of our heart every time we lose one. Hugs.
I think he had a good life. He definitely took a part of my heart though. He will be missed.
