    She didn't eat for 10 days till we tried salmon. I clean can salmon off some of the salmon with finger to make patties and offered it to Molly, she ate it up. She even did a slow jog to the mailbox. her head was bent sideways, she couldn't walk since the stoke now its almost back to normal. She is a bag of bones but seems ok, wags her tail, follows me around and no more towel under her belly to walk her outside to do her business. She will nudge me to let me know she 3wants food or to play. This was taken a couple months ago,she is the one lying down.,

    Poor thing it is hard to see them get old. Molly has cataracts, can't hear good.

    Just took Molly to check the mail and she has a spring in her step today, her highlight of the day is going to check the mail.:) She loves salmon paddies and that is all she will eat now. Not sure what to do except let her have them since she won't eat them unless it's paddies. Gonna name her peppermint patty.:confused:

    She ate rice with her salmon this morning and still going like the energizer bunny. Can't believe she came back after a stroke and I was having to carry her, in and out for days. Now she goes up steps and down then jogs when going to the mailbox. :confused: :)

    My answer was actually to the thread title, but even if I wasn't an animal lover, I wouldn't wish ill of any living thing - except black flies, and maybe mosquitos.
