Jumabaar Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 Thanks for all the kind thoughts. It is just surreal. I was supposed to pick him up tonight for a show tomorrow, and he was entered in another next sat. I don't feel like going to either, but I want to pick up the catalogues. It was all over in less than 48hrs and I think it will take a long time for the shock to wear off. He really was a magnificent sight. Everything that I was hoping for from the litter in the one package. I just feel so guilty that I even had the litter- but hindsight is an amazing thing. His parents were both over 6yrs old and healthy, and I have met every single one of his grandparents and most of his great grandparents as well as cousins and uncles and all have been healthy. Just really sucks. I thought it was going to be a healthy litter that would be amazing flyball dogs- and I could see it in him. The specialist has no answers. A PM is being done, but so far nothing remarkable has been found and I am waiting till a particular histopathologist comes back before I send tissue samples away. So I have no idea if it is hereditary, if the other pups in the litter are safe. It could be epilepsy but there are a few hundred other possibilities as well. It did not present like any particular disease. Its all just completely doing my head in. I had to sit and wait for a month for test results with the Haemophillia, and now I am sitting and not expecting any answers at all. I have been making sure my pups are not left for too long but I can't keep it up- not unless I quit my job and I only started it on tuesday!! I am soooo tempted though. Sorry, just need to vent I don't want to put any more on the people around me who are also struggling to process all this. He was just such an amazing dog.
