It hurts just to look at it!  I know. Ever had a toothache? A dental procedure? Can you imagine having THAT done? So SAD. |

I had all four wisdom teeth removed and the pain afterwards was unbearable. I think I prefer giving birth!
I can only imagine the pain that that op must cause.

I was "out of commission" for 3 weeks, and lost like 12 lbs b'c my mouth hurt so much. I just don't feel its right to keep doing this to this puppy. |

Yeah and my little blot clots didn't stay in my mouth so it was all raw and nerves exposed, plus two were still infected . Jeez so glad I had four done in one go. I would hate to go through that again! I think the intentions are there for Mia but that picture is shocking. As I said before, I don't think there's much of a quality of life with that. I know we'd all do everything in our power to help our babies but sometimes its better to say goodbye and let them rest |

My name is Sue and Mia is my dog. You know what? I had this very long reply that I was going to post defending myself and my precious baby but then I thought for a second and it occurred to me….this is a typical forum. A bunch of “know it alls” that know nothing. So, continue talking about how selfish I am and how cruel I’ve been to Mia. Continue stalking her website and posting the pictures of “sick” Mia and not the healthy Mia that plays, barks, gets into trouble, gives tons of kisses and love. Don’t post about any of the good things and happy times or her cute little antics like beating up her toys, helping with foster kittens and puppies or joyfully humping her teddy bear. Don’t post how cute she is when the door bell rings and this little one pound lover runs barking at the door ready to defend her home or the way her ears go back in delight when her daddy gets home. Don’t talk about the little Miracle that brightens so many strangers days just by meeting her or a tiny dogs true will to live. Just continue to sit in front of your computers putting a negative spin on a situation that you “think” you know. I won’t defend myself for loving and taking care of a little dog that came into my world. As long as Mia continues to love life and everything in it, I will continue dedicating myself to her. It’s too bad you didn’t take the time to really get to know her. Truly knowing Mia is a guaranteed smile everyday! I am removing myself from this forum now. P.S. for all of you experts….Mia does NOT have hydrocephalus!! She is as smart as they come. Trust me! Attachments:

Hi Sue (if you are reading this). It's great to hear the other side of the story as her owner. Great to know that she has good days as well as bad. But I have read the updates on YOUR website and no vets have come forward to help her, even after your media blitz and countless $$$$$. Why aren't there any vets offering to help? Not even ONE willing to step forward? You have gone to multiple facilities and vets and everyone is giving up? Why? I believe it's because they don't think they can help her. The fixes keep breaking down. The wound keeps growing and getting infected. Over and over and over. This is where I have a problem. Not with trying. Not with hoping. But there comes a time when you have to realize that the best intentions in the world are not going to help this poor dog. In your own words from the update page .... www.loveformia.com/UPDATES.htmlPosted a couple weeks ago on September 5 .... You gave this update ..... 9-5-2011 The odor from her mouth and rattle in her chest is back. Put her back on Clavamox. I just don't think the other two antibiotics are doing anything. She is still playing and loving life. Trying to nip this quick. I wonder if she truly is "loving life" with the whole top of her mouth gone and battling raging infections and probably pneumonia (rattling in chest) over and over and over. To me it is just sad. I wish there was someone to help Mia. I really do. Because I think her life now is truly sad. |

What a very sad thread and really the only thing that comes to my mind is the saying "Sometimes love is holding on and sometimes letting go ..."
There are worse things than euthanasia and in my mind, it's always been about quality of life, not quantity when it comes to my animals.
