Lost my male Collie today, Had to put him down, He lost all control of his rear half (hips,legs), bladder,bawls, R.I.P My friend, you will be missed dearly ......
Vet had no answers to why
Keep them bunnies on the run until I get there my friend...

Sorry about your loss. Man things can change quick for anyone!! Makes you appreciate what you got!

Man that sucks sorry to hear about your loss. Hope you get another good side kick

I am so sorry to hear about your loss! Putting down your best friend is a hard thing to go through...

Just think though he's probably chasing angel bunnies up there now.

sorry about your lose. i lost one two wks ago and i know its hard.

so sorry for your loss

I have had a few hounds and terriers get paralysis before. Best thing you can do is ride it out. This little fella (the terrier) had it so bad the only thing he could move was his eye's for a few weeks, I would take him out every few hours and use a towel as a sling to support him so he could clean out. In a couple months he was back to him old self. When the paralysis gets to their respiratory system is the only time it kills them. Most including my vet have never dealt with or now how, there is no treatment, just have to let it take it's course. One of my old coon hounds had it twice, this little terrier also had it twice and recovered.

Thanks everyone,

It was hard to make that call, But in my heart I know I made the right choice

Sorry for your lose Runnin Hard...Good friends are hard to replace...

sorry for your loss. cherish all the memories.

Best grade dogs I saw on film Sorry about Collie.

Sorry for your loss. Hopefully your fond memories will help to ease the pain in your heart. I recently had to put down one of my dogs. The decision is never easy but somehow we seem to know when it is time. Cherish the memories and imagine him in the eternal "happy hunting grounds" no longer in pain.

Thank You , I put a lot of time on my dogs and to hear things like this is a bonus
He was my best dog in the check area and was very consistent, He will be missed

I know I will be looking for a long time to find another like him
