    Very sad to read that. Really sorry about your loss. Was it an older Basenji?

    Oh, Maggieleahy, I am so sorry about your loss. Your girl knew how loved she was by your family; please take comfort in the fact that she was with the ones who loved her most when she left this world.

    I lost my Lucy unexpectedly last April, and like you, it was a sudden shock. I still cry for my girl, and I mourn her loss…. they say time heals, but that's later. Grieve and cry, and wish she was still with you... In spirit, she is still there, curled in her favorite spot, basking in the sunshine.

    Hearts and Hugs to you and your family, my friend.

    Oh dear. I certainly was not expecting this outcome. I am so sorry for your loss. Did your veterinarian ever determine the cause?

    @nobarkus:

    she said in a earlier post her dog was 8 yrs old.

    im very sorry for your loss, i lost my jack russell last year to cancer at 12 yrs old (my father had my dogs mother and the mom lived to 15) , best dog ever. and it hurts so much, make a collage of all her pics and like someone else said just wish she was with u. was the worst day of my life i had her from 8th grade till i was 26. she wasnt a family dog , she was mine and i paid all her bills. i was and still am devastated 3 yrs later. so unexpected reading your update i felt my heart drop into my stomache i feel so sad . once again im sorry and take care of yourself.

    @Andrew: Worst feeling ever!!!! Lola got to half of a chocolate covered granola bar …I had heard somewhere you have a 30 minute time limit before the chocolate does damage. Just wanted to share this link showing the amounts of different types of chocolate it would take before you see a toxic reaction. http://www.vspn.org/Library/misc/VSPN_M01325.htm If it was a sugar free granola bar, and contained Xylitol, that would have been much more dangerous however. -Nicole

    I wish. Gypsy is getting old and having more problems – sometimes loses her balance, etc. -- and in response Jazzy is getting meaner to her. When the dogs are outside, Jazzy will wait on the porch for Gypsy. When Gypsy approaches the porch to come in, Jazz will run out growling and starting biting at her face. I've been able to curb it a little by letting Gypsy in, and then shutting the door and making Jazzy wait and sit before letting her in. Little things like that... Although other times she will curl up with Gypsy and sleepthere's never any kindness shown; Jazzy bosses her around more than ever, often even chasing Gypsy off of her bed so that Jazzy can lie down on it {I always make Jazzy get back off and let Gypsy back on}, even though Jazzy has a chair and her own bed. It makes me sad. Keoki on the other hand, seems quite oblivious and treats Gypsy the same as always. While those two never snuggle up, they are play-time buddies. Gypsy livens up a good bit when Keoki invites her to play.

    @ELERICKSON40: Yes I agree. She is quite the mighty hunter and her nose is to the ground always!! Alot of times when she is digging in the couches and chairs she is trying to bury a bone. She will stuff a bone into the corner and actually take her nose and push imaginary dirt?? over the bone. It makes us laugh!! Yea, my B does the same, the first time I saw this I was so intriged, they are so smart. It is a funny thing to watch, Sahara will take a bone around the house in her mouth for the perfect place to bury it. If she can't find a place she is happy with she will prance around whinning the sadest noise like she is so sad. I actually pitch in and help her find a place, and she will most of the time agree on the place, she checks it out and then walks off. These dogs spoil you for any other breed, they are the best.
