Have to take our 12 year old Black Lab to the vet on a one way trip. She has not been doing well the last year and has gotten a lot worse. Wife wont let me take her "for a walk". I would have preferred to do it my way, as less stress on the dog. But I have to live in the house with the wife so she wins on this. Penny has been a good dog. Pets should not have such short lives. I'm preparing for a lot of sobbing this evening when she get home from work. Our other dog is going to be confused for a bit I'm sure.

A sad time indeed. It is always difficult to lose a pet.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

That's never a good time some how those ice cold wet nosed buggers wiggle and squirm into our heartstrings and latch on like no other becoming as big a part as if they were more than a 4 legged fur ball that sheds like crazy !

sorry to hear that.

for what it is worth I think the walk is a better option also , but the same I had to live with my wife and she told me I didn't want to be the guy who took the kids dog for a walk.

after watching the hole process at the vet , I told her the next dog if it needs it goes for a walk.

Very sorry. We have the best of friends in our dogs. We have to do the right thing as they come closer to the end and it is not easy. Not one frigging bit.
