We had a very difficult decision to make today. Our 14 year old dog took a turn for the worse this past Sunday. When we got home, she could not get up. We don't know how long she was stuck in that position. She has had arthritis in her hips for a number of years. She hasn't been able to get up on her own since Sunday. She rested all day Monday and seemed to be doing better.
But Monday night she did bad again. We discussed it with our vet (I've known him for 38 years!). He is trusted, honest and has the animal's best interest at heart. As much as I am against taking a life, we had to let Winnie go today. She is missed.
