Yes well one never knows, sure he said all the right things, but i have my doubts, still one has to have faith, pity he had not been healed properly before he left as i would have made sure he got the best of care,still i guess he has had spot since a puppy for 14 yrs and even though he was a bit on the thin side, he was old and that can happen to some dogs i am told, I told him to make sure his claws were clipped, of course he listened and agreed to do everything i asked, but one can only hope,you can only do so much in the long run.
