after such a great sled season i felt that 2026 could be my year. last sled ride was march 1st . march 2nd my 8 year old golden retriever looks at me coughing and showing same symptoms as the last one. i knew , i just knew, he had cancer. vet said nah , not looking that way. well after milking us for bloodwork and shit they did xray and he has cancer in his spleen. bleeding internally. crushing as many of you know and have even posted about it. i gave him some chinese meds that slow the bleeding and it seemed to give him some good days that we spent with him. today he is losing the battle fast and tomorrow will be the day if he makes it. such a beautiful good dog. fun loving like a kid , not a mean bone in his body. and stuck to us like glue . that part will be very difficult , especially for my old lady. she is retired ,works only 2 days a week and spent her time at home with the dog. we never took any vacation that he could not come on as we refused to leave him with someone else. i was camping a couple years ago , guy across came over and asked his name. i told him Remy. he said well that is the best behaved dog in the whole campground. he's welcome in my site any time. all our friends and family love him as well. the last one was a very sweet female . one night camping we were like hey , where's Molly? look across the road and she's sitting around the fire with other people. they were all petting her , she sat like she belonged. i went over and told them sorry , but they were in love with her . said she could stay. not a chance .
