Gosh he is such a CUTIE!!! Poor little guy! I know its a really hard decision to have to make! I do not envy you at all on this one! I once had a dog that was overall very healthy, but was getting up there in age and arthritis took a toll on her body. Her legs gave out on her and she could not walk at all anymore. We (my parents really) had to make the VERY difficult decision to have her put down. It was hard, but it was even harder to watch her just lay there. One day taking a walk, she collapsed, my dad had to come pick her up and put her in the car and drive her home. We kept her 2 more days but she never got up. She could no longer walk, and although she seemed happy and not in pain, it was heartbreaking! We gave her many many good years and loved her very very much! That was the nicest way to let her leave this world, the kindest, most humane thing to do for her after all the love she gave to us! Take care sweetie! |
