Had a little tear come to my eye as I read this, this morning... that's got to be a difficult decision. Enjoy your time that you have left together.

15 years is a good run. Unfortunately my lil buddy Kiwi is suffering. So we made the decision to pamper her for a few days before we (me, my wife, 2 kids) say goodbye.
If you have a sec, send some prayers her way.

All dogs go to heaven. RIP sweet baby.
Thank you Civ. She's a puppucino kinda gal.Civilized said:
Dogs are the some of the best stuff in life, man.
Like you said, Kiwi's had a fantastic run and couldn't have had a better forever family. Deciding it's time is a terribly hard decision, but remember it's an act of love also.
Hope you've had a chance to love her up here at the end and she's had all the ice cream treats and peanut butter kongs a sweet old girl could ever want.
Prayers up for Kiwi and your family buddy. Hope this week goes as well as it possibly can under the circumstances.

Same. We had our (my) first dog as a family pet for 17 years and dumb me thought, well, I'll take him to the vet and do what needs to be done and go to work afterwards. Wrong. I was a mess the rest of the day. They're definitely family and it sucks to lose them.Packchem91 said:
I can't read this thread. I'll start tearing up like I do when I hear Stapleton sing "Maggie's song".
Bless you though (and your family). You guys need the prayers because of the hurt.
I've always said "I'll never be that guy", but now with my golden doodle Henry, he rides with me daily to get CFA in the morning or Lowe's to get yard stuff, or sometimes just on a joy ride with his head out the sun roof. Or brings me his soccer ball every evening for a game. We think everything he does is hilarious, and gets by with much more than any of our kids ever did lol.
I can't imagine when that time comes, it makes me sick thinking about it.
What a beautiful pup. I'm so sorry brother.hokiewolf said:

Absolutely. When the time is right always adopt. They just want a home and to be loved. If I had unlimited resources I'd go get everyone of them.erniencsu02 said:
sorry for your losses guys
Just remember there are tons and tons of good boys and good girls just waiting to be adopted.
And they'd be more than happy to help comfort you thru your grief....

Anytime anyone asks "what would you do if you won the lottery?", I always include adopting every dog I can find and/or opening a no kill shelter staffed by me lol.
fostering is a good way of saving lives without having to win the lottery to help. I always encourage fostering. It feels so great when they get adopted out. So far 3 of the 4 dogs I've fostered this year have gotten adopted and the last one is right on the brink of being adopted. I never fostered until this year. And a foster you dont have to treat as a pet....like your just trying to give a foster a temporary living condition equal to or better than an animal shelter. I have made half my shed in the back of my house available for a foster to stay in, it's a really nice brand new shed and has served it's purpose well so far.flylike44 said:Glasswolf said:Absolutely.
