Sometimes you must cry
My dog (Gregor) was hit by a car on Tuesday. I am working in California and my wife just couldnt tell me because of me being out of town and not wanting me to worry. He is hurt very badly and has been in a critical care animal hospital since Monday. He may or may not lose his left rear leg. He may or may not live I just hope that he will live. I will do whatever it takes to help our dog survive. He is a member of our family and will be cared for accordingly.
I am obviously very sad and just wanted to vent a little. My little girl is constantly asking my wife where Greggy is. My wife told me that our once 100 lb. German Shepard now weighs 75 lbs. If he survives he will need multiple skin grafts on his rear leg to replace all that was lost in the accident.
Sorry for such a bummer of a post.
I cant sleep and cannot do anything to help either as im stuck here for another week.

Nick,
Dog's are a part of our family so I can relate to how you feel. They give all of themselves and only ask that we feed em, give em a place to sleep and occasionaly scratch em behind the ear. I hope your friend gets well soon.

Wishing for the best for Gregor, you and your family. :( Vet medicine is pretty sophisticated these days, so hopefully they can save his leg (and him). I can fully relate to the dogs as family, since fuzzy kids are all LOML and I have.

Lets hope Gregor pulls through. I can't imagine how terrible it must feel to not be by his side. It sounds like he's in good hands though. Hang in there.

Harley and I both send our best!

Nick, it's sad to hear about this and I hope that Greggy pulls through. I'm sure that the doc and your family will do everything possible to that end. Hang in there!

Nick, sending prayers and some Irish Setter zen Gregor's way. Spend some time with him this weekend, just sit on the floor and rub his ears. That will transfer some strength to him, and will let him know that there is a reason to fight to get better. If the Vet says they prefer you not, remind him/her whose dog it is. Don't take no for an answer. (My wife sits in on surgery's, so they will let you if you are clear on your intentions.) Jim.

Archie, Marlowe, and I are pulling for you, Gregor.

Add Pepe and I to the list.

Also Lori, Al and Gracie too.
We also are among those who feel deeply towards our dogs, so I can understand your pain.
Best of luck to the dog and family.

Best of luck and I wish only good things for Gregor, you and your family.
I lost my Bear, Golden ret., about 2 months ago, so I know your pain as do many others on this forum.
Losing Bear was the saddest day of my life, my heart is broken, I'm not sure I will ever be the same.
I hope your beautiful dog can recover.
