Good to hear Sadie is walking. Six weeks ago you said she was running around after taking the vets anti inflammatory drugs. Has anything changed? Here’s to Sadie’ s continuing good heath a and painless mobility

Our 15 year old Border Collie also suffers from Arthritic hips and at first we gave him Yumove (and still do) which definitely made a difference. He is now on Metacam and just recently has begun Librela Injections every 4 weeks. They have made a big difference to his mobility.

We did look at stem cell treatment that involved him twice going under an anaesthetic and a risk of side effects. Then he would probably need further treatment after a further 6 - 8 months. Very costly, although some insurance policies do cover this treatment.

At some time folks, we have to give in and accept our companions are in their last days. No matter how many drugs we give them , they have a final life time.
We hated it when we have let our dogs go, but I rather have the heartbreak than see them suffer, they cannot tell us how much pain they are in.

After a number of difficult months with Sadie,, our beloved dog, we had to see vets as an emergency when in 24 hours she deteriorated , She peacefully went to sleep with my wife present. We"re now looking to coping with Sammy who was always by her side.
She"ll be greatly missed a true friend
This a photo of them together on the beach

Sorry to hear of Sadie’s passing. It is an awful decision to have to make, but I firmly believe that it is the most loving thing an owner can do. You will all miss her.
