See that black dot. It showed up on Bud-Dog's belly about the middle of August. It quickly got larger and I took Bud to the vet once I got a chance after Hurricane Katrina. The vet removed the growth and sent it off to the lab. The diagnosis - Hemangiosarcoma. A form of cancer that affects the blood vessels. Not good, not good at all. 
Bud died at home, in my arms one week ago today. I miss him so very, very much. He was such a loving little lap dog - that's my chair he is laying in here, waiting for me to sit down and hold him. There is a huge hole in my life right now and I suspect it will be there for a long, long time.

I'm so sorry for your loss...
I know exactly how it is.
Your doggie sure is a cutie on the picture.
I lost my dog about 2 years ago, and I still sometimes cry thinking about her. :'(
gosh, I am so sorry for you. Nothing can replace your little dog, but the precious memories will give you joy forever in your heart.
Send you my sympathy

I'm so sorry about your loss. I know Bud must have been a wonderful friend.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my beautiful soul child (a Golden) Sumner to this disease. I have a hemangio support group on yahoo and you are more than welcome there. Follow the dog information link on my blog and you will find it. Sending you lots of hugs!
