Unfortunately, the worst fears were realised to be correct: the Golden Retriever had cancer. As time ran out, doctors made every effort to keep him as comfortable as possible. A little love would encourage him to face obstacles with courage and tenacity.
The treatments he underwent enabled him to rebuild trust in people. He improved noticeably throughout the course of the weeks. His expression had changed from sorrowful to cheerful. Unlike us, our loyal four-legged buddies don't require much: just love.
