One of my favorite photos

This is one of my favorite pictures of Paris. My smiling dog!

He was a happy Yorkie!

Puzzle Helper

Paris would love to sit by me and "help" me do jigsaw puzzles.

(Yippee I got all my photos on my new computer at last!)

2 weeks

This has been the longest two weeks of my life. I am still missing my Paris, but with the support of a great group of people, I am slowly beginning to heal.
Hug your dog and take every moment into memory.They are gone far too quickly.
Paris met the challenges of being a blind wonderdog with courage and he taught me to face what life throws at you one day at a time.
I still don't have my photos on my new computer, but I will be posting some more.
Thanks for staying tuned.

Paris

Thanks to everyone for being so kind. I will post some more photos I took of Paris as soon as I get my computer back.
I am leaving his blog online bcause many people told me how it has helped them.
This has been a terrible time for me.
I miss Paris and his little crooked smile so much.

I will never forget

I will never forget playing football with you. Throwing it down the hall and you sliding for it.
I will never forget the way you launched out the door to get the squirrels.
I will never forget all the "going bye bye in the car" rides.
I will never forget sitting in the chairs looking out the window with you.
I will never forget the courage you had when you faced blindness.
I will never forget the unconditional love you gave me.
I will never forget you Paris.

I am beyond grief.
I had Paris put to sleep this morning.
He had the worse night ever. I talked to him and promised I would never let him suffer like that.

I have a few more things to share in the days to come.
Thanks for being there for Paris and for me.

Changes

Paris has been having terrible nights, three in a row, so I called the vet and he said it may be Paris' time. He was not sleeping, gasping for air for 20 minutes at a time. He just laid on his circle bed the third day and didn't want to get up. It was horrible. I was finally prepared to help him out. I came home from work yesterday and there he was all wagging and kissing and even played with the squeaky sock! It's like he knew I talked to the doctor. He slept very well last night, only waking once with a short wheezing fit. I do hear some crackling in his lungs I never heard before and his breathing is more labored. I will keep a close watch on the old fella.

Happy New Year

Ok, so I took the foam out and he slept like a baby last night. I just don't get it. He sill woke up coughing but not as bad and so far no wheezing.
Laptop on the fritz so maybe a few days before updating....

Here's hoping for a Happy 2012!
