Not So Happy Chimi Update....

Our last post shared about or lovable lab and her cancer. As a family we decided to take a chance and give chemo a try. She seemed to be doing pretty well. However, after two treatments, she took a turn for the worse. We noticed her having a hard time breathing along with continued weight loss. The vet did a x-ray which showed various tumors, along with a very large one on her chest pressing against her heart and lungs. At this point we knew. It was time to let our sweet girl go. 
 We squeezed in a few Chimi rides this week, along with lots of hugs and kisses (and table scraps galore). 

 Sweet Chimi-Changa, you will be missed. You were a wonderful family dog that set the bar really high for all other Turley canines. 
Goodbye sweet girl...
