I've often felt like I made the decision too late, but never that I've done it too early, so these days I try to remember that and make the call a little earlier. I've had an 'under the blankets winter or summer' dog too, and oh boy is it hard to let those ones go. Run free Scout.

You know about Morris. All I can say is that our good pals always deserve fresh air, exercise, attention and of course a ride in a cool truck. <br />They also deserve a human friend that meets and understands their needs and gives them dignity in the end.Val Ewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11773318159420863765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1432762024762532275.post-11861464977971916092018-06-17T16:41:35.663-04:002018-06-17T16:41:35.663-04:00Elva, this is beautifully written and touches on s...Elva, this is beautifully written and touches on so many of the things we go through and consider for our pets.

We are two months past her original euthanization date because of CBD capsules, but, I noticed this morning, she was panting hard outside. I am watching her closely for signs of pain. She is actually getting around MUCH better in these last few weeks, but it is inevitable. My closest large animal vet won't do it, he is in a practice with a small animal vet and does not want to "take away his business".
