I am saddened to let everyone know that Clara passed away this afternoon. She has been struggling with breathing issues for awhile now. It increased with the hot weather and we were hopeful that she would make it through to cooler temps, but alas was not to be. I brought her in the house because she was breathing harder then usual and her tongue was very purple.
After awhile she wanted to go back outside and that is where I found her a little while later. She was unable to get up or respond to her name. I tried to pick her up to bring her inside but she was in too much pain. We have an area on our land referred to as "The Pet Cemetery", it is peaceful, shady and out of the way where they won't be disturbed.
I sent a picture message to everyone but have learned that not everyone can receive them so I am putting the three pictures I took of here today, a little while before her passing. She is much loved and will be very missed. I know she is not in pain any more, she's up there chasing all those critters she dreamed about.
You brought us great joy and happiness, we love you and miss you Clara Belle, good night, sleep in peace. Luv Dad
