Sorry to hear about your member of the family. That is what they are. I went through this with our Lab last summer. He had bone cancer.  :sry:

Oh man CQ I'm so sorry to hear this, I just seen this thread today and reading it from the beginning I was hoping for miracle ending for your dog.  I lost a dog about four years ago and its a tough thing to deal with, ill still pray for that miracle for your dog.

Damnit.  That sucks.  I was pulling for something else, as I think we all were.  At least you have an answer and can move forward with how to handle things to make her comfortable.

Well finally I can give at least somewhat of a good update. Vet put Dakota on prednisone and she is eating ON HER OWN!! She is hanging out with us instead of hiding out by herself... Actually had some energy and was standing up at the kennel door when I got home. It is sooo amazingl and wonderful to see her feeling better!!! When the meds wear off, her appetite goes away, but we're working on finding the right dosage so that doesn't happen. Even if it is only temporary, at least I still have time to make her last months (or whatever timeframe it may be) the best I possibly can. Lots of time playing fetch and lots of treats for my girl... Thanks again for the support throughout this whole ordeal. It has been hard, and I still have the worst part to deal with... but at least I have some more time with her.

That's sad Camo Queen, but happy the meds are helping her.  Spoil her good, and take lots of photos for memories.  At least I think that's what I would do.  Hope you have many more months with her.
