I am so sorry to hear about Eisen finally losing the fight. Four years is an incredible victory and gives hope to every newly diagnosed OSA pup. The only good thing about going to the Rainbow Bridge is the welcoming committee waiting there. Jerry, the ultimate leader of the pack, and all the other tripawd warriors will surround him with love.
Stacy, Jim and Rene, my thoughts are with you as you navigate your pain and grief. I hope you find peace in your memories and the fact that Eisen kicked OSA's but for four years — a truly amazing feat.
Best,

Golden retriever, diagnosed with osteosarcoma in September 2010 — right front leg amputated November 2010. He fought valiantly to stay with us; but a second diagnosis of osteosarcoma, this time in his left front leg, was more than our golden warrior could overcome. He loved his pack — and everyone else he met.
We loved him even more.
Thanks for the pennies, Sammy. They helped.
