Taima was the first to be named in the litter that was born April 20, 2000, the only one who had to have treatment as a puppy by a vet. He was a eager player and loved to run and play. His partner Yuma will surely miss him. He was a gentle soul and was never agressive towards me. Not even once! Yuma stood his ground to protect his brother but the sadness of his passing put a forlorn howl that we all understand.
Taima was autopsied for our understanding as we were in shock and had no forwarning that this was upon us. The results were that he had "twisted his stomach" and was in much pain and it is common in animals with large cavities.
Knowing what killed him was better than not knowing. It is our first loss and it is very painful. I just don't know what else to say. I watched the whole episode and was unable to give him any comfort.
