By Heather Koehn: "Worst case of jaundice I’ve ever seen. Ibuprofen toxicity. The dog got into a fight with the other dog and the owner gave one dose of 600mg ibuprofen about 5 days prior to presentation at my clinic. The owner elected humane euthanasia."

THIS IS MY LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT

Before humans die, they write their last Will and Testament and give their home and all they have to those they leave behind. If with my paws I could do the same, this is what I'd ask...

To a poor and lonely stray, I'd give my happy home, my bowl and cozy bed, my soft pillows and all my toys. I'd give the lap which I loved so much, the tender loving touch, the hands that stroked my fur and sweet voice which called my name. I'd will to the sad and scared shelter dog the place I had in my human's loving heart of which there seemed no bounds.

So when I die, please do not say "I will never have a pet again for the loss and pain is more than I can stand". Instead, go find an unloved dog. One who's life has held no joy or hope and give my place to them.

This is the only thing that I can give...The Love I left behind.
