Do you remember dear Luke arriving. He couldn’t walk, apparently knocked over by a car, and so so thin. Clearly his life so far had been tough. The vet had recommended euthanasia, but volunteers at the SPA saw his light. We thank Mornac for entrusting dear Luke to us and for Hope taking care of of his initial vet needs.
He rehabbed well, soon walking, albeit with severe arthritis in those back legs. He put on weight and my goodness, he gave his love. He just loved his humans and gave the most delicious cuddles. We all adored him. When an outreach place became available we watched him continue to flourish with his outreach mum. Enjoying a one to one, short walks and just being able to be. They adored each other.
This took an abrupt shift, with gastric troubles and needing hospitalisation and care that he just wasn’t responding too. He came home briefly, but then in again. Sadly our Luke didn’t gather , it was his time to cross the bridge. The autopsy showed a severe bacterial infection that the vets had never seen before. They learnt from the situation which is always a wonder for another dog who might be suffering.
Luke my dear friend, methinks this wasn’t the best life time for you. But we had some precious times with you and we all felt your love and affection. We thank you outreach mum for those precious months. You deserve to run free over the bridge, let all that was negative be gone and carry only the good memories and know you are loved
