Guinness is gone. He had to be euthanized Friday.
From the rather teary report I got, there was an unprovoked attack on a neighbor minding her own business. The attack was severe enough to warrant an ER trip, though from what I hear she'll be ok. But that was his final strike. He'd bitten three people here, and this was the second since going to live with Laura, starting anxiety meds and seeing a behaviorist.
If nothing else, we both know we did everything possible to save Guinness from himself.
I'm on pretty heavy drugs right now, and still crying regularly.
Guinness, I never stopped loving you. I wish there had been some way to save you from the demon in your genetic code. I did everything I could to make sure you were happy, healthy, socialized, exercised, trained and loved. Losing you has hurt more than losing any dog since Oliver.
I know you're at the Bridge, harnessed up and ready to go for one of our wild neighborhood rolls together. Hang on for me pupperboy; at the rate I'm going you won't be waiting overlong.
