Our Dog Scooter

[Keith_Hixson]

Scooter came down with canine pancreatitis and had to be put down. Its an old dog's disease. The Pancreaous gets an infection and it eventually destroys the digestive ability of the dog. The dog starves to death if not put down. Scooter had already lost 7 pounds and had stopped eating. He was starting show signs of consistent pain. RIP Scooter.
We've had scooter about 16 years. Scooter was a pure bred dachshund. He loved everyone and was everyone's best friend. He'll be missed.

When you've had a trusted friend for that long, it's hard.

He was a member of your family.

RIP Scooter!

I love daschunds.

RIP Scotter. About 5 years ago my dog Bart had to be put down after 14 years. As I was digging his grave in the back yard I told my wife to go to the pound and get us another dog. Have had Frank ever since

Sorry Keith, and also for rest of your family.
Know that loosing one of those furry little critters is like loosing one of the family.
Maybe even worse?

Never heard much about pets giving families tons of grief,...as have about some family members.

Sorry to hear he is gone Keith. I think John has the best idea.
