That is very sad, animals is a part of the families, and we loves them. If you think about age, they say a 'dog year' is like 7 human years. That will be 13,5 x 7 = 94,5 years. Not too bad to reach that age, is it?

So sorry, Fran. I put my 12 year old Pier to sleep last year, with great sadness. While the vet was prepping the injection, she worked her way between the vet and I...still trying to do her job...protecting me.

Fran,
My deepest sympathy goes out to you our pups are family for sure.
We have had 2 dogs, we still have 2 now. 5 years ago we had to put down a 9 year old due to cancer. Man oh man what a hard time both my wife and I had. We put her down on a Sunday, we were both distressed and wound up taking a sick day the following day. To add insult to injury 2 years ago our youngest developed a disk disease the choices were not good since she could not walk We opted for a very expensive operation and it worked.
