Hate to be a downer with the thread just back up, but our Smokey passed away in his sleep Sunday night. Apparently, his heart was worse than we thought. He hadn't been the same for the last 3-4 months. But as mentioned previously, the Vetmedin worked incredibly well (for 2-3 weeks). Then it seemed to do nothing
 He actually had a great last day and spent the whole day with my wife and I and others and seemed OK. But at dinner time his coughing attacks returned and he wouldn't eat or drink. I was worried but thought I'd get him into the vet first thing Monday morning. RIP buddy. We donated the $200 worth of Vetmedin we had just purchased.

Thanks man. The meds will go to someone who can't afford them and would otherwise have to put their dog down.

I'm so sorry, Curt. Smokey had a very good life and knew he was loved. He's chasing around with Sir Henry now in that big backyard in the sky....

Curt, I am so sorry and unfortunately yesterday our girl went to heaven. Lady was 9 1/2 yrs old with advanced kidney failure and cushings disease along with chronic urinary tract infection. She was a very gentle lab, never barked only when seriously threatened and kids had their way with her, she loved to swim and jump in the water. She will be missed badly.

That's even tougher to lose one like that. Watching a prolonged illness is the worst. Sorry to hear

Curt, So very sorry to hear about Smokey. He was a regular Schnauzer fix for us, especially since we lost our Sir Henry this past August. Like Smokey, Henry left us during the night. We too donated his unused meds and supplies back to our Vet so someone else could use them if financially strapped. We understand your loss and you family are in our thoughts. Schnauzers are funny little guys  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hope this lightens the day for some
 To quote the Great and Mighty Baz. “Give em belly rubs and ear scratches from us” Give them unconditional love while they are with us.

Schnauzers are an addiction! We've had 4 now. Dante our 4-year old from Florida is still up to no good.
