    I just wanted to say how sorry I am for you. I know what it's like to loose a beloved dog. You joined the month Sassy died so I'm not sure if you know my story but anyways Sas was 10 years old, she was pretty old considered a senior. We had tried everything for her arthritis but it just took its toll on her. She couldn't even get up anymore and she limped with every step that she MANAGED to take.

    Anyway, I really don't know about the circulation thing and I hate to say it but it might be her time. I hope to god that your vet can give you some options on what to do with Cassie. Only you will know when it's time in the long run..

    ((hugs))

    I'm so sorry to read about Cassie's problem. I don't claim to know much about animal health, but the cold paws does sound like a circulation problem. Sorry I can't offer more help. Prayers for you and Cassie both. I will light a candle for her.

    Oh no miss Cassie. Sounds exactly like what I"m going through with Honda. She can hardly get up and when she stands she only stands on one leg. I'm going to talk to the vet on Monday to see what we should do. Luckily your Cassie has lived a longer life than my Honda. And I'm sure her life has been great. You don't want her to be in pain, so I think she would tell you when her time to go is. Poor old girl. I'm here for you if you want to talk.

    I am sorry to hear Cassie is having some problems.
    Has she been interested in eating any lately?

    I do not mean to scare you, but I know you are looking for honest opinions. I just wanted to throw in that the week prior to my Frisk making that final trip to the RB he was wobby and would often fall after taking a few steps. I had noticed his paws were colder than normal but did not pay much thought to it back then. I did not know if it was because of his sudden onset of diabetes or something else...

    ((((Hugs))) and prayers going out to Cassie and all of her humans. You will all be in my thoughts.

    I am so sorry to hear about your sweet Cassie. If it is time for her to go (and I really hope it's not) you will know and will do what's right for her.

    HUGS to you, Cassie and Boomer.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
