100 Days with 100 Dogs: Day 83 - Ross Crosses the Rainbow Bridge

Day 83 of our 100 Days with 100 proved to be an unhappy one with another dog recently passing.

It is with much sadness that we report that Ross was the latest victim of this sudden kidney failure. He was a young healthy dog of 18 months and showed no signs of illness until this morning. He looked flat so Lawrence rushed him to the vet. Sadly he was too far gone and the vet advised euthanasia. Ross will have a private cremation and his ashes sprinkled in the field he loved to play in. Fly high Ross ❤️

Sincere thanks to Lawrence who took such good care of Ross for us.  It is a very difficult time for a kennel when they lose a dog. We can’t help feeling responsible but we know our kennels always go above and beyond for our dogs. ❤️

This is particularly concerning as we've had 3 young healthy suffer kidney failure in the past week. Two sadly didn't make it and Ned still hasn't recovered. Each lived in different locations so a viral infection is unlikely, but it seems too much of a coincidence to ignore. None of the dogs had access to toxic substances that might have been a cause. We advise keeping an extra close watch and seeking veterinary advice if your dog becomes unwell - especially if they're showing signs of jaundice.
