Today, Ruffles Rescue and our medical team, made the gut wrenching decision to es**rt Charlie, also known as Buzzbee, to the rainbow bridge. Despite Buzz being hospitalized nearly his whole time with our rescue, his health continued to decline and within the past week, it was on the fast track.
Buzz’s jaw was no longer bone like. It had become spongy, soft and his ability to eat was nearly nonexistent. Buzz most likely had a parathyroid cancer, that affected his calcium build up; and ultimately his quality of life.
Due to his needs of constant medical care in the last week and me not being able to provide the care due to the birth of my daughter; Companion Animal Medical Center and the sweetest veterinarian technician named Letty, stepped up and gave him the comfort of having a home in his final days. Letty would bring him to work with her daily and would bring him home, to love and care for him. Buzz was the sweetest man, who adored her child and would sleep in bed with them.
Today, Letty bought Buzz some chocolate milk, cupcakes and let’s not forget chocolate syrup. In tradition fashion, I brought him chicken nuggets but due to the condition of his jaw and his inability to eat, he stuck with the chocolate milk.
Today, Buzzbee was sent to the bridge being loved and cared for by his guardian angel, Letty. We are forever grateful for Letty opening her heart and home to Buzz, as this little man went to heaven knowing nothing but love and a gentle hand.
Like all Ruffles dogs, Buzz will be cremated and he will have his forever resting place with his guardian angel. Please keep Companion, Letty and our whole Ruffles army in your thoughts. Everyone who met Buzz, loved him. His soul was as kind as his eyes; and he will forever be a Ruffles boy.
Run Free, sweet boy. We all love you. 🖤
