I thought this girl needed a post just for herself
TAKEN FROM MANY TEAR RESCUE WEBSITE
03-02-12 Heaven has come from a pound. She is old and spent 9 days there. Her breathing was poor and the pound owner got some tablets for her. Lisa, Heaven's "Angel "saved her from being put to sleep. She brought her here but Heaven was gasping for breath, close to death. Her heart was terrible and her life was ending.
Problems finding a vet to help her peacefully die meant we needed to snuggle her in a quiet kennel and gently talk to her. Hours later she was no better and a vet saw her and gave her some heart medication which we have administered with a lot of love. Sophie, who finished work at 4pm, only left her side at 7pm and James is staying the night and will look in on her as I will.
We are desperate for her to be able to get relief and find some happiness however short. The thought of her last days of no cuddles lying in a pound is too upsetting. We want you to pray for her and we will tell you how it goes but we will not let her suffer. She loves Sophie's flapjacks (as do I) and I reckon it's a great sign that she wants to eat!!!
UPDATE
It's 1pm and I have just said goodbye to Heaven. We put her to sleep here so there was no more stress for her. She had a warm night filled with love, cookies and cuddles. Her poor heart just was unable to help her though her spirit was so willing. It was a very hard time to make that decision for a dog we knew had suffered so much at the end but I felt it was the only kindness left.
This is so sad, I am sure Tammy won't mind me mentioning it, but we was hoping to help this poor old girl out by phil and I going to collect her then she woud go to Tammy next week, but unfortuntly the poor girl wasnt strong enough
Run Free sweet girl, may your life at rainbow bridge be happier than you had in life.

At the very least you managed to make sure she was warm and loved and gave her the best ending possible in a very difficult situation. Sweet dreams Heaven ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
