RaisingRiver Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Sunday the 21st I am traveling to meet Fly, a 1.5-2yr old rescue in Idaho (Inland Northwest Rescue) for possible adoption. I have been deliberating on getting a 2nd BC and he sounds like just the right fit. If I think he will work out with the family, he'll be flying home with me. The flight is only 1 hour, so I'm not too worried.

Bordercentrics Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 How wonderful! We did the last leg of the transport getting Fly and another BC to Mary Ann. He is a great dog. I think he can do just about anything you may want to do! Kathy Robbins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaisingRiver Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Thanks everyone! An adopter from my area was just at Mary Ann's this weekend (she adopted Suzi Q) and said Fly was sweet, intense and energetic. I'm so excited at the propect.

RaisingRiver Posted January 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Sad news. While I was lifting off from the Portland airport to see Fly, he had a very bad seizure at MaryAnn's. It was totally unexpected and gave no indication. He lost all control of his body and was crying in pain. He was sent to the vet, also crying the entire ride there. The decision was made to end his suffering and put him to sleep. I never got to meet him as he was already gone when I landed in Spokane. I spent the day with MaryAnn & her 25 dogs which included Peg's puppies . But I flew home alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bc friend Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Sorry to hear about Fly but it sounds like the right decision was made. I know you must be very disappointed as well as sad, and I feel bad for you as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie_Girl Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Oh, Lord that is so sad. I am so sorry for you. And poor Fly. So close. It is just too heartbreaking for words. RIP dear Fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat's Dogs Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 That was unexpected. At least Fly had a loving home waiting for him. And you got to see puppies! That is the best way to cheer up - go see puppies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
