A Reprieve For Pax
Author: siggyIt was a reprieve for Pax. Last week one day he just lay there almost motionless. My dog would not eat or drink anything. He just lay there. I thought it was the beginning of the end. He is a big dog, thirteen years old. Really big dogs don’t live as long as smaller dogs. I thought his time was up. His malaise lasted only one day. All of a sudden he perked up, drank water and ate again. It was not his time. I will try to not take his life for granted any longer. I don’t know how much time he has but I will make an effort to treasure his remaining days.
