She was starting to show signs of increased anxiety. She was trying to escape the motorhome through the front door or a bedroom reason for no known reason. We took her to see a couple different vets, but they could not figure out what was going on. On thing that one of the vets shared with us made since. She said that anxious dogs, (which Rosie has always been) tend to experience increased anxiety as time goes on. So, after first trying a couple of different CBD solutions with out any success, we tried several different traditional medications for anxiety which eventually seemed to get her anxiety under control.
One night, in September, as Rosie was jumping onto the bed, she missed and fell to the floor and started limping. We got the next possible appointment in to see our vet, and she did some xrays. It turned out that on top of Rosie's arthritis that had been diagnosed a year earlier, Rosie had bone cancer. Though amputation might have addressed the bone cancer, her arthritis (or maybe even bone cancer) seemed to get worse for her each day. Arthritis doesn't normally spread over the course of a few weeks, but bone cancer can. So, we decided the time had come to remove Rosie from her misery. :-(
It was with great sadness that we said good bye to Rosie on this day and laid her to rest. The video in this post is in memory to Rosie.
We love you baby girl, we always have and we always will!
Safe travel s all.
Eric and Carol Anderson
