we spent some time with Jax yesterday & got him to eat some food for the first time since tuesday. when we visited him today he seemed to be in worse shape, although they have his vitals stabilized. we were both crying when we left.
we are meeting with a surgeon tomorrow to discuss options. we both feel that if it comes down to amputation then we may have to put my friend down as it is extremely difficult for such a front heavy dog to survive with one front leg. we are hoping it does not come to this as i can't bear the thought of putting him down. i have had dogs all my life but never had such a close bond as i do with Jax. this is killing me inside. i have to go now.
