I am so sorry for your loss. Run free sweet Prince

I have only just seen this :(

It was me who had the pup, Reuben, who had the JRD. It was discovered during a routine castration operation December 2009 and he went rapidly downhill during the next week. Finally he was in at the vet to have a large lump drained that came up on his neck from constant injections while being flushed out, and the vet rung on Boxing Day and said that his levels were back from the lab, and were higher than they were to start with.
So failing having him flushed out every week, she recommended he be pts. So we decided there and then as he was already under a light anesthetic for the drain, it would be kinder to do it at that time.
He was 10 months old :(

I still feel guilty that until we discovered it, how ill had he been feeling?

I know how you feel and you have done the very best you could do.

Reuben will meet Prince at Rainbow Bridge and Prince can look after my puppy. x

More kidney info - but mostly about chronic kidney disease.
