The vets have given Pearl a final inning

Knowing in advance, even 5 years in advance, doesn't help one damn bit.

Pearl has repaid her room & board many times over, and you've been loyal to her. Shows you can maintain a healthy relationship, if the other half holds up their end.

I remember suggesting you get another dog when you lost the last one, so Pearl would have company and you would have a buddy when Pearl eventually wore out. You didn't, and now with all the shit going on in your life, if that was a good or bad move.

Sorry, UT!

No money. I tried briefly, but was skint when the time came, and had to bail on my breeder. And the thinking is, you don't get a dog when you're skint because you can't pay the vet to treat it properly if something goes wrong.

I will be looking to adopt, I think, when the time comes.

I am sure Pearl is approaching things with a grin and grace, as she does. Sorry you are facing this journey, but she wouldn't want to be on it with anyone else.

I have a cow orker at the rehab who has a rescue. Let me know if you ever choose add a furry family member and I'll. Get you connected with her.
