Ripley was a GREAT dog. I could have done the worst thing in the world and when I would tell him about it, he would still love me and be so forgiving. He was my walking buddy. I didn't even have to have a leash on him. We'd almost go for walks everyday. I could leave Ripley out of his pen all day long and not have a worry in the world that when I opened the door he wouldn't come running to greet me. He loved swimming, chasing the fourwheeler, and duck hunting. He was an all around great pet that my whole family misses so much. His hips went when he was only about 4 and recently, things just started happening. He had an assist on his eye which wasn't a huge deal but then at the beginning of the summer, he started losing hair and was crazy itchy. We brought him to the vet and he had hypothyroidism and had to take 2 pills everyday for the rest of his life along with the one pain killer for his hips. We accepted it but then he got another lump on his neck and a huge growth under his ear. So yesterday we brought him to the vet and the one on his neck was no big deal but the one on his ear would have needed surgery to get rid of it. What happened was a blood vessel popped and it created the big lump and was painful for him. The vet would have had to surgically rupter it or it might do it on it's own which is not good. So, that would have needed surgery. And his itching and hair wasn't really getting any better and either was his hips so we decided we didn't have the money to make him healthy again and put him down so all the pain was gone. My whole family misses him so much, he was a fantastic dog, amazing actually. I know he's helping us all get through it and I know he forgives us because well, he was forgiving. I also know he's with our other dog Max helping him get through the lonliness and loss. I love you Ripley!
