Why am I writing this?

I have known many, many people who have had their dogs die from cancer. In many cases, the cancer was too far advanced to treat. Of those who did treat, you don't know the details of what they went through. It sounds quite simple when summarized with 'we went though chemo and he lived 2 years'. There is a whole lot more emotion and decisions to be made. Treatment is not always simple.

This blog is my own personal experience. Some days are filled with frustration, others are filled with laughter. If anyone is offended, I can't apologize for my emotions. I typed what I felt at the time. It does not mean I feel the same today. If you want clarification, just ask. No matter my frustrations, I know my vet and oncologist are doing a fantastic job of caring for Arri. He just is not co-operating by being a 'typical' case.

About Arri

I am going to attempt to do a journal about Arri's cancer journey.  Journaling isn't my strong point but I thought some of you might want to share the ride.

 A little about Arri.   He was my first CCI pup to raise.  He was born January 31, 1999 to Campbell II and Patrice.  Being my first CCI dog, I thought he was wonderful.  I now know the difference between a good dog and a working dog.  He was released after 2 months in AT and became our furever dog.
