Well, as Mike Pennington already knows, today was finally the end. I had to take my buddy Yoda in today to have him put to sleep.
It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I just buried the little guy in the yard, and I miss him already. He put a smile on my face so many times a day I owe him a great gratitude for the years of happiness he brought me.
Hey Mark, sorry to hear that. I know that feeling all too well unfortunately. RIP Yoda! Go kick my other cats and dogs around a bit up there, huH!? lol
I'm so sorry to hear this. Pets are like people, like children, I don't care what anyone says. My 15 year old Doberman female suffered from lung cancer for the last few months. Unfortunately it went undetected until it was too late. I tried to prolong the inevitable, but it was obvious she was suffering terribly. She hated the vet, tile floors and stainless steel tables, so I obtained the necessary medications and put her to sleep myself, holding her in my arms until she was gone. I sat there holding her body and cried for hours, then buried her in the yard under an old oak tree so she would live on. Still makes me tear up when I think about it. I never thought I would have another pet after her. I was spoiled. I bought my wife a miniature schnauzer for her birthday two years ago and that dog is the incarnation of my doberman, just as well behaved, intelligent and loving. I'm glad we have her.
Thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family in this difficult time.
