Houndtime Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I am so sorry for your loss. Take comfort in knowing that your sweet boy is at peace, pain free and running once again with the wind. We went through the same hard decision with our Paulie. He had struggled for two years before we let him go. He was such a sweet boy, was still eating, but he was not enjoying his life. He needed to leave with dignity as he had been a proud racer.

Saharasmom Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I'm so sorry for your loss. We had to put Coltrane to sleep 3.5 years ago after he developed cancer in his leg. Similar to Vinnie, he had other mobility issues and then had trouble lying down. At the time we went back & forth over trialing other pain meds, but now that time has passed it is easier to see that sadly his best option was euthanasia. I wish you peace going forward.

My heart is broken and there right words just aren't there. Such beautiful eyes. Hang in there. ************************************************************************************************************************ "For love is as strong as death....

If a man would give for love all the wealth of his house, it would be utterly despised." -Song of Solomon 8:6-7 "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart." "What we have enjoyed we can never lose…All that we love deeply becomes a part of us."-Helen Keller "Some animals...leave a trail of glory behind them.
