Ardens Xandor

My beauteful Renzo.. You were only 2½ years old when you got the diagnosis bone cancer.. RIP 2005-05-16

My hart were torned out and i felt so lonely...

This is our story so please if you are sensitive then i suggest that you dont read.

I got this beauteful brown dobermann male year 2003. He came from the kennel Dark night eagles.

He is a very special boy to me..

Year 2005-04-..

For a while Renzo had been limping on and off on his right front leg. I went to the veterinary who felt the leg and did not find anything wrong at that moment. My Renzo did

not say a word when the veterinary pulled his leg back and against him and forward and so on. And because he did not find anything wrong then Renzo only got some panekillers and we went home. The same weekend we were going out for a walk, i lived in a flat two stares up and when we went down these stares he just fall down and started to scream. It felt like my hart stopped and i raised him up the stares again and in to my appartment.

I called for my boyfriend who helped me with Xandor to the veterinary. The vet X.rayd him and saw that his elbow had exploded by the fall.. His elbow were black and it looked like sand.. Something was terrible wrong..

He had a lot of pain. They could not say that he had bone cancer but they were almost 100% sure that it was it..

And now 2painfull weeks were in front of him because they needed to do a biopsy. First they did one and they could not find anything and after that they needed to dig more deeper and then after 2weeks they did find what caused problems.. It was bonecancer... And it had gone so far that he were only getting wors.. The veterinary also told me that he would have more and more pain the more hours that goes by,, And he wanted me to put him to sleep al ready this the same day...

But how could i not see anything or noticed anything so wrong???

And he was only 2½ years old with his whole life in front of him!!?? I could not understand..

I heard that his sister also were put to sleep because of the same disease. She were only 2 years old when she got the diagnosis.. So when this happened to Renzo, i had my thoughts about her and were afraid that Renzo would suffer by the same thing. which unfortunately were correct.

He did not eat or move this last day.. when we went outside he tried to be him self on only three legs.. The right leg were bleeding and i tried to stop it but it would not stop completely..

Early they day after we went to the veterinarey and they to put him to sleep.. Me, my boyfriend and my father were by his side the whole time..I sat beside him.. It was horrible... My worst nightmare had come true..

But i know that we did the right thing, he did not have to suffer any more.. I love him..

Now he rests at home under a big beauteful tree in my home town.. becide the meadow were he used to run free,..

This was the story about my first dobermann Renzo.. but he teached me a lot..

Will always miss you..I love you..
