Our 1st baby Shicayne was put to rest on August 31, 2006. He suffered from hemangiosarcoma, a very aggressive cancer which attacks the blood cells. By the time we saw any symptoms it was too late. The cancer had spread to his lungs, liver and spleen. He was bleeding profusely internally which was coming up and out through his nose and throat. The doctor informed us there was no treatment for him and they could only prolong the inevitable. He was on blood and plasma transfusion and surviving through that. Even with the support, he was rapidly losing blood. He would only suffer if we waited, so we decided to let him rest in peace and without pain. This is definitely the hardest decision we have had to make, but we know we did all that we could, and it was truly the best for Shicayne. He is with the angels now. He was loved by many people and will be missed. Shicayne was very intelligent, playful, gentle with the children and just loved life. We loved Shicayne with all our hearts and we will miss him. But, he will always be with us in our hearts and we know he will be our angel looking over us. We will love you forever, Shicayne.
Shicayne’s 10th birthday is coming up on September 13. Please take a moment to think of him that day and send him happy wishes.

As a dog owner myself I know how hard it must be to lose someone so special.

I feel sad just knowing that my dogs will pass before I do.

Sorry for your loss.

I had to do the same with my pal Scooter when cancer was taking him. I can identify with the emotions you are going through.

Hi everyone,
Thank you for your support and concern. We are hanging in there as best as we can. It's very hard because we miss him so much.
We permitted UC Davis to do an autopsy on Shicayne so we could know for sure what happened to him and also to benefit the students and future patients there, since it is a teaching hospital. The doctor said the primary mass was on his HEART and from there it spread to his lungs, liver and spleen. He said we definitely made the right decision. As hard as this decision was, we can be at peace now and Shicayne can rest in peace.
Thanks again for all your thoughts, prayers, and well wishes.
-The Milian Family
