In Memory of Sorbet

Sorbet, Sorbet, had a long journey home Sorbet, Sorbet, was sweet to the bone Sorbet, Sorbet, has passed away But we will remember her to this day by FBRN junior volunteer, Cecilia

Sorbet was surrendered to us in terrible condition. She was less than two years old and suffered an untreated seizure disorder. Any time she was picked up or there was too much excitement, she was subject to a seizure. This disorder did not prevent the puppy mill owners from having her bred and producing puppies. When Sorbet was surrendered, she had a seizure, she aspirated vomit, and she developed pneumonia. Her foster parents had her only a few hours before she was in the ER, unable to breathe. She died having known less than a day of freedom. We deeply resent the loss of this young dog, and we regret that she did not have a chance to know more love, more care, and more life.

Following Sorbet's death, her foster mom wrote FBRN's volunteers, saying:
...as sick as little Sorbet was during the brief time she was at our home, wouldn't you know it...Theo and I both took turns gently massaging her and she crawled right up onto each of us for more. We're very sad and sorry that we didn't get to know her better, and see her as the healthy, happy Frenchie she so deserved to be.
