Edwina, please thank your husband (and you too of course) for trying so desperately to help this pup. You gave this guy the best chance. I'm so angry !!! Drunk, negligent guardians... And the vet....I know it's naive of me. But, I can't imagine being a vet and turning away a dog in need. As a nurse, I can't imagine turning away a patient for lack of funds. It's just instinctive....especially in a trauma/injury situation. HEAL!!!! I too pray that someone loved this labbie boy and is cherishing his memory. Are you sure he is gone??

And Purrley...I think I remember you once, when you first joined Pet Talk, telling that very sad story. How we all felt for you. Being the animal lover that you are, I know how that must have hurt and haunted you.
