Our dear Tennyson.

Last week, we awoke to him acting uncharacteristically lethargic and without appetite. Vet found he'd developed hemangiosarcoma and was bleeding internally, and inoperably.

We were fortunate he was able to get a transfusion so he could spend his last days at home.
Tennyson, a mixed-breed dog with a brindle coat, white chest, white paws with brown speckles, and smallish floppy ears. He is smiling, lying on a green blanket upon the grass of the backyard. Tenny, standing on my wife's desk, extending his tongue slightly to give affection, to my wife just out of frame. Shelves of board games are visible in the background. Tenny lying partially inverted upon a gray sectional couch. His paws are extended, and his ears are flopped loosely. His eye whites are visible following an episode of playfully rolling on the couch and jettisoning the pillows.
