So sorry to hear about Rocky and I am sure you did the right thing. We also had to let go of our Brodie today... I understand your pain far too much.

Brodie has crossed the bridge I don't even know what to say here, just wanted to provide an update. I'm able to write more right now. I'll elaborate another time. Thank you to all who have been supportive and thank you to Boxer World. Eric

Boxmom - Thank you for sharing that. Sounds very much like Brodie and I'm glad to hear Bailey made it 14 months as we are being told to expect much less. Brodie began drinking buckets of water and we thought it was strange. The vet initially thought it was an UTI and prescribed anti-biotics...
