My little four-legged friend had to go today. Where? I do not know.
But I hope very much to a "place" where he can be happy again, or at least no physical suffering can learn more.
He still had the day before yesterday and today only 36.8 ° C or 36.4 ° C body temperature were normal for a small dog like him around 38.5 ° C. Until yesterday, wanted to "Schnacki-Amadeus" still eat, but could not hold it for days except for a short time after a Rymadil injection. 800 g he had taken off in recent days, about 15% of his body weight. This morning he had given up its desire for food altogether. On walks, he had also lost the fun. All of my efforts and veterinary side was in vain, his time on earth, in this form of existence, had run its course.
At 11:40 clock he was given a general anesthetic, then the killing injection in his little dog hearts.
Dr. vet. Sch. was very nice and we talked again my decision and it gave me much comfort in this situation would have no cash demands. . But I was doing, 'and went all the same, only with its ceiling, beyond his / r harness / leash and coat the back of the room. On the way I lost his gray chest harness, the oldest, which he owned, from the very beginning of his time with me.
I had taken with him 9 years of an animal protection association, 15 ½ years could he will. Amadeus had me very, very much given to pleasure, gives me even better physical fitness and me with his loyalty and devotion, and later with his obedience are rewarded richly. He was a great, small life companion, six and a half years.
And he was the smartest dog that I ever shared my life. like to spend a few hours quietly alone at home, not to bite at me, housebreaking to go on a lead, driving do not: Within two months he was everything he had learned all he in a life with me needed too much bark in the house, run free and come back to me, other males in peace to let pass by. More he did not sit well set and he was allowed, of course, as it chooses, because of an exaggerated (typically German?) I do not believe in blind obedience, after all, even dogs with their own personality and these should also be allowed to keep. I do not want a "slave", but a dear friend at my side. And I get paid by him a lot, learned a lot, a deeper understanding in relation to dogs souls, greater knowledge about typical dog diseases and also a good deal more self-discipline, I got through it, my little friend. For I am with him four times a day, 365 days a year every day, went for a walk ', in wind and weather, and indifferent whether I was healthy or sick.
Amadeus was really a great dog - small, but powerful and not very intelligent, but also very, very brave. He did not care at all whether his rival had the size of a poodle or a Rottweiler about. However, later they were allowed to at least walk past him without him while the "Irish Wolfhound" marked. He was a bright, lively, confident guy, and nevertheless he was also sensitive and delicate.
Some time ago, when it occurred to me that his time here could probably expire soon, thought I am a song I would dedicate to him later on and at which he will then return in the future again and again in my memory. The to-fall! would have it, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4InAirYaoas&playnext just at the moment, about three minutes before I entered into the veterinary treatment room, this exact song in the waiting room has been played on radio ...

And now he's gone away '. Too bad he does not have a year or two could no longer stay with me, really bad. I hate Scorpion months!
Amadeus, my little one:
I was terribly fond of you, you were the sweetest and dearest, what I have in recent years 'had' as a loan as a gift.
do it well!
I wish you very, very lucky,
so you can be happy again!
