My Sweet Babygirl Godiva

(Bedford MA)

We saved Godiva from living in a crate for the rest of her life because she was from a poodle breeder who could only show the perfect dogs.

Godiva had dwarfism (same as humans, just puppy form) and she had a hard time running around and with lots of activity. She used to scream in agony after she had done a lot of exercise. She had some sort of disease that forced us to give her steroids so that she'd gain a little weight.

Her life prognosis was about only 2 years but she is now 7 years old and just beginning to deteriorate. We took her to the vet because she can't use her back left leg at allllllll. We think we'll need to put her down.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do without my sweet angel sleeping next to me every night. I'm torn apart and can't believe it.
