Very Sad Family

Saturday, September 27, 2008 on Saturday, September 27, 2008


I'm having great difficulty posting this, so please bare with me. The story of the past week brings tears to my eyes, not to mention that the horrible nightmare that is called "parvo" for dogs is not over yet for us.

So far it has taken the lives of four of our beautiful 4 month old puppies, two still in vet care and mom and another puppy still at home.

The complete story in detail can be read on my daughter, Miranda's, blog:

I had planned a complete blog with photos of our new deer cam which I promise will be up soon. This whole ordeal has taken a toll on my whole family and with tears in my eyes I can barely type at this point.

So far we have had to put 4 of our beautiful babies down, so please pray for the two puppies that are still in vet care and not out of danger yet. We have two more at home. We also are bleaching our clothes, shoes, and will have to burn the puppy pen itself tomorrow. This is a horrendous disease which reminds me of ebola. We are strong, but we also are praying for strength. This is the ugliest suffering I have ever had to watch in my life...... even cancer in my own family.

Thank you so much for your friendship and support.

Susan, Kent, and Miranda
