Last night, my 17.5 year old Yorkie passed away while in bed with us. She was having trouble breathing, it sounded like she had fluid on her heart or lungs, her breathing was long between and sounded difficult for her.
The past couple of weeks she had started to lose her balance, and would sometimes have trouble standing, her legs would seem unsteady. But she was eating, drinking and still very affectionate.
Taking today off work to bury her and explain to my boys (9 and 11), and to regain my composure.
I'm happy she passed while under the sheets laying next to my side in bed. Best way I could have hoped for.
Good night, Lexi. You will be dearly missed.
