I lost my best friend today. I had to put my 13 year old Lab down. Whisper had a variety of ailments, the worst was diabetes. She has required two injections a day for the last 18 months. My wife called me last night asking me to come home from hunting early because our little dog was failing . We took her to the vet this morning and her blood sugar was 500, her kidneys were shutting down, she was acting disoriented and confused and to top it off her right hip kept slipping out from under her. The diabetes finally beat her, she could never regain her health or strength so I held her until I felt her slip away. In all the time we owned Whisper I never remember having discipline her, she always obeyed commands, never destoyed anything and seldom ever barked. Whisper would rather lay at your feet than rough-house, she was just laid back and happy to be with you. I someday hope to see her again at the "Rainbow Bridge". I am just heartsick.......
