Dock
For those of you who have been following Dock's story, it has come to an end. Over the past few weeks, his health deteriorated---he could no longer get up on his own, then he started refusing food, even his favorites. He had a crisis this weekend and we let him go. He had so many health issues (heartworms, Evan's syndrome, thyroid issues, autoimmune trouble, a history of cancer) that it seemed like the right thing to do, and the right time to do it. I was with him. I know I only had him for a short time, but I loved him dearly and will miss him. He fought hard and now he is not fighting any more. |

| Awwww. Poor Dock. He fought so hard. Catherine (and all those that worked to help Dock), I'm so sorry to hear this. I was hoping he would find a normal where he could live a long, happy life. May this sweet baby rest in peace now, free from pain. |

I'm so sorry; he seemed so well when we saw him in Atlanta at the Sheepdog Day in the Park. Still, I'm glad he ended his days with love and happiness, and not the stress and illness and fear that he came into rescue with.  |

| I havent been following Dock, so I dont know his history. I am pleased you were with him when he trotted off over the Bridge. Another sheepie with angel wings. Go and play with all the other angels darling xx So now I have read your previous posts, thank you for rescuing him, he looked so gentle, sorry you had him for such a short while but at least he knew love...tears for you...xxxxx |

| Very sorry for your loss. Out thoughts are with you |
| Thank you all. He was my only dog, so now the house seems so quiet and lonely without him. I miss having someone follow me all over the house. |
| I'm so sorry for your loss. I couldn't live a day without my lovely Joy. I was more than a year without a dog in my house, (now she is four years already) I had to call my new dog, Joy, because she brought tons of joy and love into my life again  Hope you get a new dog as soon as possible. |
