Hey guys, what is up,
I have once again
been hella busy with work and haven’t really had anything to talk about. The
other day (10/22/16) was absolute hell. I have started working mornings on
Saturdays because Tats left us L. So we are back to training again. I had train
a new chick and it was a train wreck. She did absolutely nothing. So she got
sent home so she won’t be coming back.
The main reason it was hell was because we
lost one of the dogs. **The following may
have explicit language so be warned.** Her
name was Lucy. When I came in that morning Boss Lady had left me a note saying
she was very sick and to make sure she drank water. She would not drink any on
her own so I got one of our syringes and squirted water down her throat. She
was just pitiful. I did this multiple times every time I got a chance because she
needed to drink. I texted Boss Lady and told her that Lucy didn’t want to eat
so she told me to give her some chicken broth. I did the broth the same way and
would squirt it down her throat. I continued to do this till about 11 when Boss
Lady come in. I told her that she hadn’t seemed to have gotten any better. That
I saw she hadn’t vomited anymore but she still had bloody diarrhea. Boss Lady
was trying to get her to drink on her own when Lucy’s parents called and asked
about her. Boss Lady told her mom that she was still very sick and wouldn’t drink
on her own. After that I don’t know what was said because she had to walk outside
because the dogs started barking. I went in there and gave her some more broth
through the syringe and eventually Boss Lady came back in. She said that she
was gonna take her to the vet. So I picked Lucy up, she was too weak to stand
long, and carried her to Boss Lady’s car. Now I would be lying if I said I didn’t
even think about Lucy and worried about her. I did; I had nursed this dog all
morning and had held her and loved on her. So I tried my best to focus and get
the last walk done. It was about 12:30 when Boss Lady text me and told me…. She
had to put her to sleep. I was in shock. I knew she was sick but I didn’t think
she was that bad. I was just speechless. I later found out that her owners had
dropped her and her sister off and she was already like that. They left her
there like that. We thought they were getting picked up that day but found out
that they went getting picked up till Monday. That was the main reason Boss
Lady took her to the vet. Even after they were told that Lucy would have to get
put to sleep they stood by the fact that they were coming back Monday. WHAT THE
FUCK?! I mean it’s bad enough that they left her like that but to still not
come home after your fucking dog has to get out to sleep is just heartless.
They were at a wedding. WHAT WEDDING IS THAT IMPORTANT! She had so much wrong
with her that they couldn’t save her. Her owners didn’t even want Boss Lady to
take her to the vet. I mean I get it you love this dog (or say you do) but
there comes a point when you have to put your emotions aside and do what is best
for the dog. I had to do that with one of my own dogs. We had had her for 8 of
her 16 years of life. But eventually she just became too pitiful and her
quality of life was so bad that we had to put her down. I just feel really bad
for Lucy’s sister. She got so upset when we were taking Lucy to the car without
her. I wasn’t there when Boss Lady got back so I don’t know how she reacted.
She goes home tomorrow but hopefully it is before I get there because I am just
so upset with them right now.
Well that’s about it for this post. Sorry this was so emotional.
Hoep you all have a good day/week. As always if you have any questions/
comments or topics you would like me to talk about feel free to leave it in the
comments. I will talk to you all later
Byyyyyeeeeeee
