OfflineAfter seven absolutely amazing years, we had to say goodbye to Sierra this afternoon. After her right front amputation in January, she was doing amazingly well. Then, few weeks ago she slowed down and it turned out the cancer was back in her lungs and her kidneys. She was also showing signs of infection so we were hoping to fight the infection and then have a little more time with her. We put up one hell of a fight with some absolutely amazing vets and oncologists though. She was truly a special girl, as they all are. We only hope that she has found those that have gone before her so they can have a blast and maybe kick a little monkey butt you know what (I think they are just wannabes at heart).
While we did not spend a tremendous amount of time with you all here, we are truly greatful for the support and experiences you all have shared with us. We will continue to support and follow the site and contribute where we can.
I have some pictures to post but I need to look up how to do it again.
Thanks,
Brad, Anna, Kenner, and Spirit Sierra

OfflineBrad, Anna & Kenner,
Our hearts go out to you, we are so sad to hear this. She was a beautiful girl and far too young to leave this earth.
What a great life you gave her. Your beautiful tribute video shows how much you love her and what a big part of your life she was (and always will be). Now, may her spirit run free and may she swim to her heart's content at the other place we call the Rainbow Bridge. Someday you will see her again.
Lots of love and condolences coming your way, we are so sorry.
