Some of you may remember that a couple months ago I had a contest about how much it cost to move my old dog into a new apartment. Well, she lasted only a little over two months. She was in too much pain, couldn't get up without help, and was starting to lose control. I took her in this morning and she went peacefully and isn't suffering anymore. She was 14 and had a great life. She ate like a queen all week, and we each had a final sausage McMuffin together on the way to the vet. She was my cigar buddy, and the assistant pit boss when the smoker was cranked up. I will miss her terribly. A couple pictures, one when she was young, and one I took last week. When I saw the look in her eyes when I took the last picture, I knew I made the right decision.

It's tough but just remember you did the right thing. We had to put 2 of our dogs down in the last 4 months. Really sucks!

I am so sorry man. This is one of the hardest things you can do but it was the right choice. I will shoot out some prayers for you guys. It will take some time to heal but you'll make it through.

Sorry for your loss man, I own 2 Boxers and fear the day when I will have to do this. May she RIP in doggy heaven.

Sorry brother but she's no longer in pain. It's always hard to put a best friend down. Last year 2 days before Christmas we put down our Husky of 16 years and also had a sausage McMuffin on the way😉. 4 months before that it was my 15 year old wolf. It was the hardest thing I've ever done I stayed in the room with the wolf but that was too much and I couldn't do it again with the husky. The wife stayed with both guess I'm more emotional. I can only hope they are running like crazy and living like kings with yours brother.
