Need a Break Today

I will try to get a gallery up but its been raining most of the day. I had a lot of grooming. Benny departed for the vets. As a 16 plus year old dog, well what can I say. We managed to turn his loose stools around. He was eating - barking for his meals. He showed improvement. The 1st day we thought we would lose him.
Despite his rallying, after running tests, he is not doing well. They pick him up at 7pm and will make him comfortable. I am deeply sad. I know they can't live forever and over 16 is a good life but why can't they have a longer one?
I have one more dog to groom. I have blogs to do. I hardly took photos as news came in. So short blogs across the table.
My knee is in agony but Nathan is home. The dogs are enjoying tv time - that they thoroughly adore. No Benny barking for their supper - just Harlow who we thoroughly adore to pieces. Many of you that follow the puppy videos heard Benny barking. As much as it drove me crazy - it is missed.
Rainy day - what can I say. Hard time for the family. My heart goes out to them.
Please understand the short blogs.
I believe Riley goes home tomorrow. She had the time of her life and will be missed.

Very sorry to hear about Benny. Heartbreaking for his family.
My heart goes out to Benny’s family. We’ve been there many times, and of course it never gets easier. How could it with our loved ones?l! You’ll do what’s best and should feel comfort in putting his needs before your own. Hugs to you. Been there too many times. 🤗
Sending prayers to Benny and his family, such a difficult time.
So sorry to read this news;
Always tough !
Sounds like Benny is home - eating and doing as well as he can. They may have bought him some time. Here's hoping.
