Well I certainly feel for you as you wrestle with this.
Yorkie had a bad dream... I wake ours up when they bark in their sleep. I never think it's a good dream.
I spent the evening crying in bed with yorkie. She knows something is wrong. I'm going to have to pull myself up by my bootstraps. If it effects a dog that much I can only imagine what it would do to my kids. Right now, my kids only know that Tuffy is sick, they don't know how serious it is.
