She collapsed 2 night ago. She kept screaming out of pain at 2plus am. Quickly called my bf who rushed upon hearing me cry over the phone. We quickly took Sanny to Mount Pleasant Hospital. In the car, Sanny's scream of agony was deafeaning. I began crying hysterically too. I couldn't bear the thought of having a screaming weak puppy in my arms. The trip to the hospital was what seems like years. Upon reaching, Sanny's seems better but began screaming again soon. The doc did blood test on little Sanny which made me shaking with sadness, tears rolled uncontrollably. They poke her several times but no blood came out due to dangerously low blood count. At last they collected very min. blood for the blood test. It was 14.5. Normal should be around 35. They also asked to do a distemper test. I said ok. It was positive. I was shocked. How could the previous vet not know her condition? I asked for a Valium injection to make her go for a sleep. But it could only last for 2 hrs. And they do not have the facility to board her for the night. I carried the very weak Sanny and sit in the car while my bf settled the bills. They gave us 3 pairs of injection to inject Sanny if she wakes up and scream again. In the car alone with Sanny, I stroked her and began crying for her frail life. She looked so normal in the day although a little weak. She had good apetite, played with bf's socks and followed me around the house. When bf came out, we decided to go back to the carpark at his place since ours is a weekend car and it was already 5 plus in the morning. I didn't want to go back home because her screams woke up my heartless brother who scolded me. When we reached back. Sanny woke up and scream in agony again, we gave her the shots and she went back to sleep. We slept in the car for an hr plus. During this time, I made several calls and made the painful descision to PTS her. Around 9 plus am, we reached the rescuer's place to pass her Sanny to be brought to Animal Clinic for the injection. During the trip, we gave her 2 more shots. After that we went home. I cannot help thinking of her and what could I have done to save her. I came upon this website http://www.edbond.com/distemper.html . Mayb, just mayb I would have brought her to Dr Sears if he is in Singapore.
These are her last pics.

oh JJ,
I don't know what to say.
This made me really sad. Sanny was an ASD dog who didn't have a home. She had you and knew real love for the last few days in her life.
Don't blame yourself. You are truly our doggies' angel. Fei loves you!

Hi Jing-Jing,
Thank you for all that you do - and for giving Sanny a happy place to call home even for a short period. Sanny knew more love in her short time with you than in her whole lifetime. RIP sweet Sanny.

I am really sorry you had to go through that. What a shame. You sound like a very nice person.
I found your blog because you were nominated for the Awesome Blog Award along with me. Congratulations on having a truly awesome blog. Thank you for helping out the little dog.
You are an amazing person to help these dogs and Sanny was very lucky to have known you during her last days. I just know you made them so much better for her.
Farewell little girl.
