My old dog Georgie 14 yrs was seen by the vet on Friday and after the tests showed nothing can be treated we have no other option but to bring her in to be put to sleep. I cant believe in less than an hour I will be holding her as she takes her last breath. I know that it's cruel to let her continue to worsen and see her suffer but that's very hollow comfort. Even if her behavior has been hard to take (constant urination and defication all over the house including my daughters bed) that doesnt make it easy to say good-bye. Our vet said "do you want to have your last memories of her be that of her in great pain and suffering? Or would you rather make the choice before it gets to that point?"

We know that in little time she will be at the point of great suffering and I dont want to wait till that happens. This is just awful tho. She is such a good dog and its so incredibly hard to let her go. This is the part of loving a dog that is the hardest.
