Sometimes Life Isn't Fair... And Sometimes its Downright Evil

As I mentioned last week, we bought a puppy as a surprise for our daughter. He was a lazy sucker, but nothing out of the ordinary (other than picking up going outside very quickly). on Thursday, he was lethargic all day, and stopped eating. We got him to the vet on Friday (in the middle of a snowstorm, but homie don't play when it comes to his dogs).

The vet wasn't sure what (or if) anything was wrong with him either, but wanted to keep him overnight to get some xrays and bloodwork. Well, it turns out he had pneumonia, and didn't respond to antibiotics. We got the call this morning that he died.

My daughter is devastated, as are the rest of us. Talk about highs and lows this week.
