yesterday sucked and here's why

moving totally sucks. something always has to happen to make it a few times more difficult than it seemed like it would be. this time, zach the newfie had a few hot spots that opened up when it rained and he rolled in the mud. the flys got to him and he was infested. it weakened him to the point he can't deal with the hip that has been deteriorating over the last couple years. the flys were hard on his kidneys so he is incontenant now too.
i was going to take him to the animal hospital bc he seemed feverish. a customer called for information, so mark took him in. now it looks like he might have to be put down. poor baby can't even stand and hasn't eaten in a couple days. he's lost 10 lbs. its not right that mark has to be the one to do it. he's been so pitiful this week that i figured he might have died naturally at home, but he's been so healthy its going to take too long. i hope he's comfortable at least.
mark just called. poor zach has been crying. they can't help his hip. he's going to be in constant pain until its over. pain meds won't help. i guess that's it. he was such a good dog.
