Hi John,
I just want to let you know that Boris is gone. He recovered and healed very well after the surgery and he enjoyed few weeks collar free with no pain. He had blood test done three weeks ago or there abouts as the pre-op bloods showed that his kidney were poorly. Last blood test showed that even with the tablets it is not getting any better but Boris was symptom free and in no pain.
In past few days he deteriorated further and this morning was very poorly. He wouldn't eat or drink, he was very weak and lethargic. We took him to vets, luckily the vet on call was Boris's vet. She had taken some bloods and the kidneys were very poorly, his heart rate was very high, and the blood test showed some changes to the liver now. It was lost battle but the only good outcome is that he no longer suffers. He lost a lot of weight in past few weeks and it was heartbreaking seeing him fading away.
But he is in a better place now...we just need to deal with it now, it is so awful without him.
Anyway I thought you ought to know.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity of having such a great dog, so loving and loyal. We will always remember our Boris-ky.
Kasia and Sean Doran
