My Oldest buddy and companion for 15 years is dieing and I can't do a thing to stop it.

Toot (a beagle), has had heart problems for the last two years and on heart medicine. She's dieing now and the vet says she's not in pain, her heart is failing and we can't stop it. The only time she'll eat now is a little out of my hand. I have to pick her up and take her outside to use the bathroom.

She has always been special, she was another dog (puppy) thrown away. She was brought to me by a friend that found her. When I got her, she was so small I could put her in a basket on the front of my old 3 wheeler atv and ride her all over these Georgia swamps. She turned out to be a natural tracker, never failed to find a deer or hog someone shot and couldn't find.

She was cut by a wild hog one time, and stuck her nose under my bush hog (mower) and that like to have killed her, vet., vet., vet., bills and I would pay them again. If it could happen, she would do it.

Call me a silly old fool, but my heart is breaking and there's nothing I can do for her or me. I've got other dogs, but this one is so "Special".
