Eskie Rescuers United

Quedo
I helped my foster dog Quedo travel to the Rainbow Bridge today, July 5th. Quedo came to me in July of 2008 when she was returned to Eskie Rescuers by her adopters. She was loved by them but they were going to be traveling a lot and could not be assured of places where she would be welcomed. I learned Quedo originally came into rescue after being found wandering the streets of Baltimore. She was definitely a streetwise dog as she scrounged the floor and yard constantly looking for food. I also learned to keep the garbage out of her reach. I discovered after almost losing her that she had Cushings. Many months of tests and medication adjustments finally got Quedo to a point she could enjoy life. She had been in such a state of agitation she would not let anyone touch her or other dogs near her. Quedo enjoyed her meals and demanded I change things up often to keep her interest. She loved to roam the yard sniffing and snuffing through the day. When she grew tired she would just plop down where she was until she was rested enough to get up and go again. Recently she could not get up and I would take a towel and wrap her up, cradling her like a baby and setting her on her spot in the bathroom. Quedo’s place in the house was in my bathroom where she liked to lay on the cool tile floor. I am going to miss stepping over and around her trying to get ready for work. I would straddle her while brushing my teeth and drip on her when stepping out of the shower but she would not move. I love you my dear baby girl, enjoy pain free romping in the fields until I arrive to walk with you across the bridge.
