Thank you for clarifying.
After I put my dog 5 years ago (because end-stage kidney failure) I have a better appreciation for the idea of not letting a critter suffer. The part of the article that rubbed me wrong was when they were just like "well, we'll wait and hope things get better". Hope is not a strategy.
Thank you for doing the right thing. So many people have a mindset of "letting nature do its thing" which is selfish bullshit. We are supposed to be the guardians of the animals we care for. Watching them suffer is not ok.
Thanks. It was the toughest decision of my life, but once I'd made it I knew it was the right decision. No regrets.
We're currently watching our elderly (~16yo) pup with early kidney failure and hoping he stays enthusiastic as long as possible. He's a sleepy boy but still enjoys his hobbies, and seems unbothered by his health conditions (except that his kidney food is less interesting than any other food.)
